SHOW PLAN syntax

SHOW PLAN

SHOW PLAN statement, added in 2.1.2-release, displays the execution plan of the previous SELECT statement. The plan gets generated and stored during the actual execution, so profiling must be enabled in the current session before running that statement. That can be done with a SET profiling=1 statement.

Here's a complete instrumentation example:

mysql> SET profiling=1 \G
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT id FROM lj WHERE MATCH('the i') LIMIT 1 \G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
id: 39815
1 row in set (1.53 sec)

mysql> SHOW PLAN \G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
Variable: transformed_tree
   Value: AND(
  AND(KEYWORD(the, querypos=1)),
  AND(KEYWORD(i, querypos=2)))
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

And here's a less trivial example that shows how the actually evaluated query tree can be rather different from the original one because of expansions and other transformations:

mysql> SELECT * FROM test WHERE MATCH('@title abc* @body hey') \G SHOW PLAN \G
...
*************************** 1. row ***************************
Variable: transformed_tree
   Value: AND(
  OR(fields=(title), KEYWORD(abcx, querypos=1, expanded), KEYWORD(abcm, querypos=1, expanded)),
  AND(fields=(body), KEYWORD(hey, querypos=2)))
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
