今天推荐给大家一个不错的脚本tuning-primer.sh，可以帮助我们去查看一下msyql的运行情况，产生报告和给出一些建议，我们可以根据这些建议，结合mysql服务器的实际情况，对mysql进行优化。
一，下载以及使用
1，wget http://www.day32.com/MySQL/tuning-primer.sh
2，将tuning-primer.sh拷贝到my.cnf的同级目录
3，sh tuning-primer.sh 或者 chmod +x tuning-primer.sh 然后在 ./tuning-primer.sh 二者没什么区别
[root@BlackGhost mysql]# sh tuning-primer.sh
Using login values from ~/.my.cnf
- INITIAL LOGIN ATTEMPT FAILED -
Testing for stored webmin passwords:
None Found
Could not auto detect login info!
Found Sockets: /tmp/mysql.sock //找到一个mysql.sock
Using: /tmp/mysql.sock //使用这个.sock文件
Would you like to provide a different socket?: [y/N] n //是否使用其他的socket
Do you have your login handy ? [y/N] : y //是否手动输入用户名和密码，当然你可以在my.cnf里面设置
User: root
Password:
Would you like me to create a ~/.my.cnf file for you? [y/N] : n //是不是要帮你在创建一个my.cnf
你也可以把用户名和密码放到my.cnf里面，如下
[client]
user = 用户名
password = 密码
socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
二，运行结果，以及部分分析和建议
我是以本机的mysql为例来进行测试的。
-- MYSQL PERFORMANCE TUNING PRIMER --
- By: Matthew Montgomery -
MySQL Version 5.1.26-rc-log i686
Uptime = 0 days 0 hrs 0 min 28 sec
Avg. qps = 0
Total Questions = 15
Threads Connected = 1
Warning: Server has not been running for at least 48hrs.
It may not be safe to use these recommendations
告诉我服务运行还不超过48个小时，这样不安全

runtime variables effects performance visit:

Visit http://www.mysql.com/products/enterprise/advisors.html
for info about MySQL's Enterprise Monitoring and Advisory Service
SLOW QUERIES （慢查询）
The slow query log is enabled.
Current long_query_time = 2.000000 sec.
You have 0 out of 36 that take longer than 2.000000 sec. to complete
Your long_query_time seems to be fine
BINARY UPDATE LOG （增加备份时的log文件）
The binary update log is enabled
The expire_logs_days is not set.
The mysqld will retain the entire binary log until RESET MASTER or PURGE MASTER LOGS commands are run manually
Setting expire_logs_days will allow you to remove old binary logs automatically
See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/purge-master-logs.html
Binlog sync is not enabled, you could loose binlog records during a server crash
告诉我binary log没有设置生存时间，会一直保存下来，只到主服务器重起，并且binlog的同步并没有激活，如果服务器崩溃binlog数据将丢失
WORKER THREADS （工作线程）
Current thread_cache_size = 0
Current threads_cached = 0
Current threads_per_sec = 1
Historic threads_per_sec = 0
Your thread_cache_size is fine
MAX CONNECTIONS （最大连接数）
Current max_connections = 500
Current threads_connected = 1
Historic max_used_connections = 1
The number of used connections is 0% of the configured maximum.
You are using less than 10% of your configured max_connections.
Lowering max_connections could help to avoid an over-allocation of memory
See "MEMORY USAGE" section to make sure you are not over-allocating
告诉我，目前已连接的最大连接和设置的最大连接的比率差不多是0％，建议我把最大连接设置小一点，可以节省一点内存
No InnoDB Support Enabled!
MEMORY USAGE （内存使用）
Max Memory Ever Allocated : 17 M
Configured Max Per-thread Buffers : 796 M
Configured Max Global Buffers : 16 M
Configured Max Memory Limit : 812 M
Physical Memory : 1003 M
Max memory limit seem to be within acceptable norms
KEY BUFFER （KEY缓存）
No key reads?!
Seriously look into using some indexes
Current MyISAM index space = 16 M
Current key_buffer_size = 16 M
Key cache miss rate is 1 : 0
Key buffer free ratio = 88 %
Your key_buffer_size seems to be fine
QUERY CACHE （查询缓存）
Query cache is supported but not enabled 查询缓存是支持的，但是没有激活
Perhaps you should set the query_cache_size 建议我设置一下query_cache_size的大小
SORT OPERATIONS （排序操作）
Current sort_buffer_size = 512 K
Current read_rnd_buffer_size = 512 K
No sort operations have been performed
Sort buffer seems to be fine
JOINS （连接）
Current join_buffer_size = 132.00 K
You have had 0 queries where a join could not use an index properly
Your joins seem to be using indexes properly
OPEN FILES LIMIT （最大打开文件数）
Current open_files_limit = 2500 files
The open_files_limit should typically be set to at least 2x-3x
that of table_cache if you have heavy MyISAM usage.
告诉我，如果大量使用myisam的话，把open_files_limit的大小设置成table_cache大小的2倍－3倍
Your open_files_limit value seems to be fine
TABLE CACHE （表缓存）
Current table_open_cache = 64 tables
Current table_definition_cache = 256 tables
You have a total of 506 tables
You have 64 open tables.
Current table_cache hit rate is 12%
, while 100% of your table cache is in use
You should probably increase your table_cache
You should probably increase your table_definition_cache value.
告诉我打开了多少文件，table_cache缓存的比率是多少，并建议我增加table_cache和table_definition_cache的值
TEMP TABLES （临时表）
Current max_heap_table_size = 16 M
Current tmp_table_size = 16 M
Of 141 temp tables, 10% were created on disk
Created disk tmp tables ratio seems fine
TABLE SCANS （表扫描）
Current read_buffer_size = 256 K
Current table scan ratio = 12 : 1
read_buffer_size seems to be fine
TABLE LOCKING （表锁定）
Current Lock Wait ratio = 0 : 225
Your table locking seems to be fine
从上面的分析报告，以及建议可以看出，本机的mysql真的要好好调优一下了。哈哈。
