show profile是由Jeremy Cole捐献给MySQL社区版本的。默认的是关闭的，但是会话级别可以开启这个功能。开启它可以让MySQL收集在执行语句的时候所使用的资源。为了统计报表,把profiling设为
show profile是由Jeremy Cole捐献给MySQL社区版本的。默认的是关闭的，但是会话级别可以开启这个功能。开启它可以让MySQL收集在执行语句的时候所使用的资源。为了统计报表,把profiling设为1
mysql> SET profiling = 1;
之后在运行一个查询
mysql> SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT actor.first_name) AS cnt_name, COUNT(*) AS cnt
-> FROM sakila.film_actor
-> INNER JOIN sakila.actor USING(actor_id)
-> GROUP BY sakila.film_actor.film_id
-> ORDER BY cnt_name DESC;
...
997 rows in set (0.03 sec)
这个执行语句的剖析信息存储在这个会话中。使用SHOW PROFILES进行查看。
mysql> SHOW PROFILES\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
Query_ID: 1
Duration: 0.02596900
Query: SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT actor.first_name) AS cnt_name,...
你可以使用SHOW PROFILE语句来获取已经存储的剖析数据。如果不加参数，会显示状态以及它们持续的时间。
mysql> SHOW PROFILE;

每行都是状态变化的过程以及它们持续的时间。Status那一列和SHOW FULL PROCESSLIST的State应该是一致的。
这个值是来自于thd->proc_info变量。因此你所查看的这个值是直接来自MySQL内部的。尽管这些数值是比较直接易懂的，你也可以查看MySQL手册。
你可以给SHOW PROFILES指定一个Query_ID来查看指定的语句，还可以给输出添加新的列。如，查看用户和CPU使用。可以用如下命令。
mysql> SHOW PROFILE CPU FOR QUERY 1;
SHOW PROFILE可以深入的查看服务器执行语句的工作情况。以及也能帮助你理解执行语句消耗时间的情况。一些限制是它没有实现的功能，不能查看和剖析其他连接的语句，以及剖析时所引起的消耗。
SHOW PROFILES显示最近发给服务器的多条语句，条数根据会话变量profiling_history_size定义，默认是15，最大值为100。设为0等价于关闭分析功能。
SHOW PROFILE FOR QUERY n，这里的n就是对应SHOW PROFILES输出中的Query_ID。
例如：
mysql> show profiles;

| Query_ID | Duration | Query |

如果没有指定FOR QUERY，那么输出最近一条语句的信息。
LIMIT部分的用法与SELECT中LIMIT子句一致，不赘述。
type是可选的，取值范围可以如下：
ALL 显示所有性能信息
BLOCK IO 显示块IO操作的次数
CONTEXT SWITCHES 显示上下文切换次数，不管是主动还是被动
CPU 显示用户CPU时间、系统CPU时间
IPC 显示发送和接收的消息数量
MEMORY [暂未实现]
PAGE FAULTS 显示页错误数量
SOURCE 显示源码中的函数名称与位置
SWAPS 显示SWAP的次数

ps:
SHOW PROFILE ALL FOR QUERY 2;的信息还可以通过SELECT * FROM information_schema.profiling WHERE query_id = 2 ORDER BY seq;获取。
作用范围这个命令只是在本会话内起作用，即无法分析本会话外的语句。
开启分析功能后，所有本会话中的语句都被分析（甚至包括执行错误的语句），除了SHOW PROFILE和SHOW PROFILES两句本身。
应用示例：使用SHOW PROFILE分析查询缓存命中的性能优势。
mysql> set profiling=1;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> select count(1) as cnt from tran_excution;
+-------+
| cnt |
+-------+
| 14225 |
+-------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
由于已经启用了查询缓存，相同查询（非分区表）可以直接在查询缓存中命中。
mysql> select count(1) as cnt from tran_excution;
我们仔细看下两个同样的语句的分析。
mysql> show profile source for query 1;

可以清晰地看到缓存中命中时，大大节省了后台的开销。当然缓存的使用也需要根据各种场景（表的数据规模，更新频率等）考察使用，并不是启用缓存就一定能够提高查询效率。这里仅仅作为SHOW PROFILE的一个应用示例。
