Statistics

Using Statistical Data

MySQL Native Driver contains support for gathering statistics on the communication between the client and the server. The statistics gathered are of two main types:

Client statistics
Connection statistics

If you are using the mysqli extension, these statistics can be obtained through two API calls:

Hinweis:
Statistics are aggregated among all extensions that use MySQL Native Driver. For example, when compiling both ext/mysql and ext/mysqli against MySQL Native Driver, both function calls of ext/mysql and ext/mysqli will change the statistics. There is no way to find out how much a certain API call of any extension that has been compiled against MySQL Native Driver has impacted a certain statistic. You can configure the PDO MySQL Driver, ext/mysql and ext/mysqli to optionally use the MySQL Native Driver. When doing so, all three extensions will change the statistics.

Accessing Client Statistics

To access client statistics, you need to call mysqli_get_client_stats(). The function call does not require any parameters.

The function returns an associative array that contains the name of the statistic as the key and the statistical data as the value.

Client statistics can also be accessed by calling the phpinfo() function.

Accessing Connection Statistics

To access connection statistics call mysqli_get_connection_stats(). This takes the database connection handle as the parameter.

The function returns an associative array that contains the name of the statistic as the key and the statistical data as the value.

Buffered and Unbuffered Result Sets

Result sets can be buffered or unbuffered. Using default settings, ext/mysql and ext/mysqli work with buffered result sets for normal (non prepared statement) queries. Buffered result sets are cached on the client. After the query execution all results are fetched from the MySQL Server and stored in a cache on the client. The big advantage of buffered result sets is that they allow the server to free all resources allocated to a result set, once the results have been fetched by the client.

Unbuffered result sets on the other hand are kept much longer on the server. If you want to reduce memory consumption on the client, but increase load on the server, use unbuffered results. If you experience a high server load and the figures for unbuffered result sets are high, you should consider moving the load to the clients. Clients typically scale better than servers. Load does not only refer to memory buffers - the server also needs to keep other resources open, for example file handles and threads, before a result set can be freed.

Prepared Statements use unbuffered result sets by default. However, you can use mysqli_stmt_store_result() to enable buffered result sets.

Statistics returned by MySQL Native Driver

The following tables show a list of statistics returned by the mysqli_get_client_stats() and mysqli_get_connection_stats() functions.

**Returned mysqlnd statistics: Network**
Statistic	Scope	Description	Notes
`bytes_sent`	Connection	Number of bytes sent from PHP to the MySQL server	Can be used to check the efficiency of the compression protocol
`bytes_received`	Connection	Number of bytes received from MySQL server	Can be used to check the efficiency of the compression protocol
`packets_sent`	Connection	Number of MySQL Client Server protocol packets sent	Used for debugging Client Server protocol implementation
`packets_received`	Connection	Number of MySQL Client Server protocol packets received	Used for debugging Client Server protocol implementation
`protocol_overhead_in`	Connection	MySQL Client Server protocol overhead in bytes for incoming traffic. Currently only the Packet Header (4 bytes) is considered as overhead. protocol_overhead_in = packets_received * 4	Used for debugging Client Server protocol implementation
`protocol_overhead_out`	Connection	MySQL Client Server protocol overhead in bytes for outgoing traffic. Currently only the Packet Header (4 bytes) is considered as overhead. protocol_overhead_out = packets_sent * 4	Used for debugging Client Server protocol implementation
`bytes_received_ok_packet`	Connection	Total size of bytes of MySQL Client Server protocol OK packets received. OK packets can contain a status message. The length of the status message can vary and thus the size of an OK packet is not fixed.	Used for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`packets_received_ok`	Connection	Number of MySQL Client Server protocol OK packets received.	Used for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`bytes_received_eof_packet`	Connection	Total size in bytes of MySQL Client Server protocol EOF packets received. EOF can vary in size depending on the server version. Also, EOF can transport an error message.	Used for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`packets_received_eof`	Connection	Number of MySQL Client Server protocol EOF packets. Like with other packet statistics the number of packets will be increased even if PHP does not receive the expected packet but, for example, an error message.	Used for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`bytes_received_rset_header_packet`	Connection	Total size in bytes of MySQL Client Server protocol result set header packets. The size of the packets varies depending on the payload (`LOAD LOCAL INFILE`, `INSERT`, `UPDATE`, `SELECT`, error message).	Used for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`packets_received_rset_header`	Connection	Number of MySQL Client Server protocol result set header packets.	Used for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`bytes_received_rset_field_meta_packet`	Connection	Total size in bytes of MySQL Client Server protocol result set meta data (field information) packets. Of course the size varies with the fields in the result set. The packet may also transport an error or an EOF packet in case of COM_LIST_FIELDS.	Only useful for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`packets_received_rset_field_meta`	Connection	Number of MySQL Client Server protocol result set meta data (field information) packets.	Only useful for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`bytes_received_rset_row_packet`	Connection	Total size in bytes of MySQL Client Server protocol result set row data packets. The packet may also transport an error or an EOF packet. You can reverse engineer the number of error and EOF packets by subtracting `rows_fetched_from_server_normal` and `rows_fetched_from_server_ps` from `bytes_received_rset_row_packet`.	Only useful for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`packets_received_rset_row`	Connection	Number of MySQL Client Server protocol result set row data packets and their total size in bytes.	Only useful for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`bytes_received_prepare_response_packet`	Connection	Total size in bytes of MySQL Client Server protocol OK for Prepared Statement Initialization packets (prepared statement init packets). The packet may also transport an error. The packet size depends on the MySQL version: 9 bytes with MySQL 4.1 and 12 bytes from MySQL 5.0 on. There is no safe way to know how many errors happened. You may be able to guess that an error has occurred if, for example, you always connect to MySQL 5.0 or newer and, `bytes_received_prepare_response_packet` != `packets_received_prepare_response` * 12. See also `ps_prepared_never_executed`, `ps_prepared_once_executed`.	Only useful for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`packets_received_prepare_response`	Connection	Number of MySQL Client Server protocol OK for Prepared Statement Initialization packets (prepared statement init packets).	Only useful for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`bytes_received_change_user_packet`	Connection	Total size in bytes of MySQL Client Server protocol COM_CHANGE_USER packets. The packet may also transport an error or EOF.	Only useful for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`packets_received_change_user`	Connection	Number of MySQL Client Server protocol COM_CHANGE_USER packets	Only useful for debugging CS protocol implementation. Note that the total size in bytes includes the size of the header packet (4 bytes, see protocol overhead).
`packets_sent_command`	Connection	Number of MySQL Client Server protocol commands sent from PHP to MySQL. There is no way to know which specific commands and how many of them have been sent. At its best you can use it to check if PHP has sent any commands to MySQL to know if you can consider to disable MySQL support in your PHP binary. There is also no way to reverse engineer the number of errors that may have occurred while sending data to MySQL. The only error that is recorded is command_buffer_too_small (see below).	Only useful for debugging CS protocol implementation.
`bytes_received_real_data_normal`	Connection	Number of bytes of payload fetched by the PHP client from `mysqlnd` using the text protocol.	This is the size of the actual data contained in result sets that do not originate from prepared statements and which have been fetched by the PHP client. Note that although a full result set may have been pulled from MySQL by `mysqlnd`, this statistic only counts actual data pulled from `mysqlnd` by the PHP client. An example of a code sequence that will increase the value is as follows: $mysqli = new mysqli(); $res = $mysqli->query("SELECT 'abc'"); $res->fetch_assoc(); $res->close(); Every fetch operation will increase the value. The statistic will not be increased if the result set is only buffered on the client, but not fetched, such as in the following example: $mysqli = new mysqli(); $res = $mysqli->query("SELECT 'abc'"); $res->close();
`bytes_received_real_data_ps`	Connection	Number of bytes of the payload fetched by the PHP client from `mysqlnd` using the prepared statement protocol.	This is the size of the actual data contained in result sets that originate from prepared statements and which has been fetched by the PHP client. The value will not be increased if the result set is not subsequently read by the PHP client. Note that although a full result set may have been pulled from MySQL by `mysqlnd`, this statistic only counts actual data pulled from `mysqlnd` by the PHP client. See also `bytes_received_real_data_normal`.

Result Set

**Returned mysqlnd statistics: Result Set**
Statistic	Scope	Description	Notes
`result_set_queries`	Connection	Number of queries that have generated a result set. Examples of queries that generate a result set: `SELECT`, `SHOW`. The statistic will not be incremented if there is an error reading the result set header packet from the line.	You may use it as an indirect measure for the number of queries PHP has sent to MySQL, for example, to identify a client that causes a high database load.
`non_result_set_queries`	Connection	Number of queries that did not generate a result set. Examples of queries that do not generate a result set: `INSERT`, `UPDATE`, `LOAD DATA`. The statistic will not be incremented if there is an error reading the result set header packet from the line.	You may use it as an indirect measure for the number of queries PHP has sent to MySQL, for example, to identify a client that causes a high database load.
`no_index_used`	Connection	Number of queries that have generated a result set but did not use an index (see also mysqld start option –log-queries-not-using-indexes). If you want these queries to be reported you can use mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_INDEX) to make ext/mysqli throw an exception. If you prefer a warning instead of an exception use mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_INDEX ^ MYSQLI_REPORT_STRICT).
`bad_index_used`	Connection	Number of queries that have generated a result set and did not use a good index (see also mysqld start option –log-slow-queries).	If you want these queries to be reported you can use mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_INDEX) to make ext/mysqli throw an exception. If you prefer a warning instead of an exception use mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_INDEX ^ MYSQLI_REPORT_STRICT)
`slow_queries`	Connection	SQL statements that took more than `long_query_time` seconds to execute and required at least `min_examined_row_limit` rows to be examined.	Not reported through mysqli_report()
`buffered_sets`	Connection	Number of buffered result sets returned by normal queries. Normal means not prepared statement in the following notes.	Examples of API calls that will buffer result sets on the client: mysql_query(), mysqli_query(), mysqli_store_result(), mysqli_stmt_get_result(). Buffering result sets on the client ensures that server resources are freed as soon as possible and it makes result set scrolling easier. The downside is the additional memory consumption on the client for buffering data. Note that mysqlnd (unlike the MySQL Client Library) respects the PHP memory limit because it uses PHP internal memory management functions to allocate memory. This is also the reason why memory_get_usage() reports a higher memory consumption when using mysqlnd instead of the MySQL Client Library. memory_get_usage() does not measure the memory consumption of the MySQL Client Library at all because the MySQL Client Library does not use PHP internal memory management functions monitored by the function!
`unbuffered_sets`	Connection	Number of unbuffered result sets returned by normal (non prepared statement) queries.	Examples of API calls that will not buffer result sets on the client: mysqli_use_result()
`ps_buffered_sets`	Connection	Number of buffered result sets returned by prepared statements. By default prepared statements are unbuffered.	Examples of API calls that will buffer result sets on the client: `mysqli_stmt_store_result`
`ps_unbuffered_sets`	Connection	Number of unbuffered result sets returned by prepared statements.	By default prepared statements are unbuffered.
`flushed_normal_sets`	Connection	Number of result sets from normal (non prepared statement) queries with unread data which have been flushed silently for you. Flushing happens only with unbuffered result sets.	Unbuffered result sets must be fetched completely before a new query can be run on the connection otherwise MySQL will throw an error. If the application does not fetch all rows from an unbuffered result set, mysqlnd does implicitly fetch the result set to clear the line. See also `rows_skipped_normal`, `rows_skipped_ps`. Some possible causes for an implicit flush: Faulty client application Client stopped reading after it found what it was looking for but has made MySQL calculate more records than needed Client application has stopped unexpectedly
`flushed_ps_sets`	Connection	Number of result sets from prepared statements with unread data which have been flushed silently for you. Flushing happens only with unbuffered result sets.	Unbuffered result sets must be fetched completely before a new query can be run on the connection otherwise MySQL will throw an error. If the application does not fetch all rows from an unbuffered result set, mysqlnd does implicitly fetch the result set to clear the line. See also `rows_skipped_normal`, `rows_skipped_ps`. Some possible causes for an implicit flush: Faulty client application Client stopped reading after it found what it was looking for but has made MySQL calculate more records than needed Client application has stopped unexpectedly
`ps_prepared_never_executed`	Connection	Number of statements prepared but never executed.	Prepared statements occupy server resources. You should not prepare a statement if you do not plan to execute it.
`ps_prepared_once_executed`	Connection	Number of prepared statements executed only one.	One of the ideas behind prepared statements is that the same query gets executed over and over again (with different parameters) and some parsing and other preparation work can be saved, if statement execution is split up in separate prepare and execute stages. The idea is to prepare once and cache results, for example, the parse tree to be reused during multiple statement executions. If you execute a prepared statement only once the two stage processing can be inefficient compared to normal queries because all the caching means extra work and it takes (limited) server resources to hold the cached information. Consequently, prepared statements that are executed only once may cause performance hurts.
`rows_fetched_from_server_normal`, `rows_fetched_from_server_ps`	Connection	Total number of result set rows successfully fetched from MySQL regardless if the client application has consumed them or not. Some of the rows may not have been fetched by the client application but have been flushed implicitly.	See also `packets_received_rset_row`
`rows_buffered_from_client_normal`, `rows_buffered_from_client_ps`	Connection	Total number of successfully buffered rows originating from a "normal" query or a prepared statement. This is the number of rows that have been fetched from MySQL and buffered on client. Note that there are two distinct statistics on rows that have been buffered (MySQL to mysqlnd internal buffer) and buffered rows that have been fetched by the client application (mysqlnd internal buffer to client application). If the number of buffered rows is higher than the number of fetched buffered rows it can mean that the client application runs queries that cause larger result sets than needed resulting in rows not read by the client.	Examples of queries that will buffer results: mysqli_query(), mysqli_store_result()
`rows_fetched_from_client_normal_buffered`, `rows_fetched_from_client_ps_buffered`	Connection	Total number of rows fetched by the client from a buffered result set created by a normal query or a prepared statement.
`rows_fetched_from_client_normal_unbuffered`, `rows_fetched_from_client_ps_unbuffered`	Connection	Total number of rows fetched by the client from a unbuffered result set created by a "normal" query or a prepared statement.
`rows_fetched_from_client_ps_cursor`	Connection	Total number of rows fetch by the client from a cursor created by a prepared statement.
`rows_skipped_normal`, `rows_skipped_ps`	Connection	Reserved for future use (currently not supported)
`copy_on_write_saved`, `copy_on_write_performed`	Process	With mysqlnd, variables returned by the extensions point into mysqlnd internal network result buffers. If you do not change the variables, fetched data will be kept only once in memory. If you change the variables, mysqlnd has to perform a copy-on-write to protect the internal network result buffers from being changed. With the MySQL Client Library you always hold fetched data twice in memory. Once in the internal MySQL Client Library buffers and once in the variables returned by the extensions. In theory mysqlnd can save up to 40% memory. However, note that the memory saving cannot be measured using memory_get_usage().
`explicit_free_result`, `implicit_free_result`	Connection, Process (only during prepared statement cleanup)	Total number of freed result sets.	The free is always considered explicit but for result sets created by an init command, for example, `mysqli_options(MYSQLI_INIT_COMMAND , ...)`
`proto_text_fetched_null`, `proto_text_fetched_bit`, `proto_text_fetched_tinyint` `proto_text_fetched_short`, `proto_text_fetched_int24`, `proto_text_fetched_int` `proto_text_fetched_bigint`, `proto_text_fetched_decimal`, `proto_text_fetched_float` `proto_text_fetched_double`, `proto_text_fetched_date`, `proto_text_fetched_year` `proto_text_fetched_time`, `proto_text_fetched_datetime`, `proto_text_fetched_timestamp` `proto_text_fetched_string`, `proto_text_fetched_blob`, `proto_text_fetched_enum` `proto_text_fetched_set`, `proto_text_fetched_geometry`, `proto_text_fetched_other`	Connection	Total number of columns of a certain type fetched from a normal query (MySQL text protocol).	Mapping from C API / MySQL meta data type to statistics name: `MYSQL_TYPE_NULL` - proto_text_fetched_null `MYSQL_TYPE_BIT` - proto_text_fetched_bit `MYSQL_TYPE_TINY` - proto_text_fetched_tinyint `MYSQL_TYPE_SHORT` - proto_text_fetched_short `MYSQL_TYPE_INT24` - proto_text_fetched_int24 `MYSQL_TYPE_LONG` - proto_text_fetched_int `MYSQL_TYPE_LONGLONG` - proto_text_fetched_bigint `MYSQL_TYPE_DECIMAL`, `MYSQL_TYPE_NEWDECIMAL` - proto_text_fetched_decimal `MYSQL_TYPE_FLOAT` - proto_text_fetched_float `MYSQL_TYPE_DOUBLE` - proto_text_fetched_double `MYSQL_TYPE_DATE`, `MYSQL_TYPE_NEWDATE` - proto_text_fetched_date `MYSQL_TYPE_YEAR` - proto_text_fetched_year `MYSQL_TYPE_TIME` - proto_text_fetched_time `MYSQL_TYPE_DATETIME` - proto_text_fetched_datetime `MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP` - proto_text_fetched_timestamp `MYSQL_TYPE_STRING`, `MYSQL_TYPE_VARSTRING`, `MYSQL_TYPE_VARCHAR` - proto_text_fetched_string `MYSQL_TYPE_TINY_BLOB`, `MYSQL_TYPE_MEDIUM_BLOB`, `MYSQL_TYPE_LONG_BLOB`, `MYSQL_TYPE_BLOB` - proto_text_fetched_blob `MYSQL_TYPE_ENUM` - proto_text_fetched_enum `MYSQL_TYPE_SET` - proto_text_fetched_set `MYSQL_TYPE_GEOMETRY` - proto_text_fetched_geometry Any `MYSQL_TYPE_` not listed before (there should be none) - proto_text_fetched_other Note that the MYSQL_-type constants may not be associated with the very same SQL column types in every version of MySQL.
`proto_binary_fetched_null`, `proto_binary_fetched_bit`, `proto_binary_fetched_tinyint` `proto_binary_fetched_short`, `proto_binary_fetched_int24`, `proto_binary_fetched_int`, `proto_binary_fetched_bigint`, `proto_binary_fetched_decimal`, `proto_binary_fetched_float`, `proto_binary_fetched_double`, `proto_binary_fetched_date`, `proto_binary_fetched_year`, `proto_binary_fetched_time`, `proto_binary_fetched_datetime`, `proto_binary_fetched_timestamp`, `proto_binary_fetched_string`, `proto_binary_fetched_blob`, `proto_binary_fetched_enum`, `proto_binary_fetched_set`, `proto_binary_fetched_geometry`, `proto_binary_fetched_other`	Connection	Total number of columns of a certain type fetched from a prepared statement (MySQL binary protocol).	For type mapping see `proto_text_*` described in the preceding text.

**Returned mysqlnd statistics: Connection**
Statistic	Scope	Description	Notes
`connect_success`, `connect_failure`	Connection	Total number of successful / failed connection attempt.	Reused connections and all other kinds of connections are included.
`reconnect`	Process	Total number of (real_)connect attempts made on an already opened connection handle.	The code sequence `$link = new mysqli(...); $link->real_connect(...)` will cause a reconnect. But `$link = new mysqli(...); $link->connect(...)` will not because `$link->connect(...)` will explicitly close the existing connection before a new connection is established.
`pconnect_success`	Connection	Total number of successful persistent connection attempts.	Note that `connect_success` holds the sum of successful persistent and non-persistent connection attempts. The number of successful non-persistent connection attempts is `connect_success` - `pconnect_success`.
`active_connections`	Connection	Total number of active persistent and non-persistent connections.
`active_persistent_connections`	Connection	Total number of active persistent connections.	The total number of active non-persistent connections is `active_connections` - `active_persistent_connections`.
`explicit_close`	Connection	Total number of explicitly closed connections (ext/mysqli only).	Examples of code snippets that cause an explicit close : $link = new mysqli(...); $link->close(...) $link = new mysqli(...); $link->connect(...)
`implicit_close`	Connection	Total number of implicitly closed connections (ext/mysqli only).	Examples of code snippets that cause an implicit close : `$link = new mysqli(...); $link->real_connect(...)` `unset($link)` Persistent connection: pooled connection has been created with real_connect and there may be unknown options set - close implicitly to avoid returning a connection with unknown options Persistent connection: ping/change_user fails and ext/mysqli closes the connection end of script execution: close connections that have not been closed by the user
`disconnect_close`	Connection	Connection failures indicated by the C API call mysql_real_connect() during an attempt to establish a connection.	It is called `disconnect_close` because the connection handle passed to the C API call will be closed.
`in_middle_of_command_close`	Process	A connection has been closed in the middle of a command execution (outstanding result sets not fetched, after sending a query and before retrieving an answer, while fetching data, while transferring data with LOAD DATA).	Unless you use asynchronous queries this should only happen if your script stops unexpectedly and PHP shuts down the connections for you.
`init_command_executed_count`	Connection	Total number of init command executions, for example, `mysqli_options(MYSQLI_INIT_COMMAND , ...)`.	The number of successful executions is `init_command_executed_count` - `init_command_failed_count`.
`init_command_failed_count`	Connection	Total number of failed init commands.

**Returned mysqlnd statistics: COM_* Command**
Statistic	Scope	Description	Notes
`com_quit`, `com_init_db`, `com_query`, `com_field_list`, `com_create_db`, `com_drop_db`, `com_refresh`, `com_shutdown`, `com_statistics`, `com_process_info`, `com_connect`, `com_process_kill`, `com_debug`, `com_ping`, `com_time`, `com_delayed_insert`, `com_change_user`, `com_binlog_dump`, `com_table_dump`, `com_connect_out`, `com_register_slave`, `com_stmt_prepare`, `com_stmt_execute`, `com_stmt_send_long_data`, `com_stmt_close`, `com_stmt_reset`, `com_stmt_set_option`, `com_stmt_fetch`, `com_daemon`	Connection	Total number of attempts to send a certain COM_* command from PHP to MySQL.	The statistics are incremented after checking the line and immediately before sending the corresponding MySQL client server protocol packet. If mysqlnd fails to send the packet over the wire the statistics will not be decremented. In case of a failure mysqlnd emits a PHP warning Error while sending %s packet. PID=%d. Usage examples: Check if PHP sends certain commands to MySQL, for example, check if a client sends `COM_PROCESS_KILL` Calculate the average number of prepared statement executions by comparing `COM_EXECUTE` with `COM_PREPARE` Check if PHP has run any non-prepared SQL statements by checking if `COM_QUERY` is zero Identify PHP scripts that run an excessive number of SQL statements by checking `COM_QUERY` and `COM_EXECUTE`

Miscellaneous

**Returned mysqlnd statistics: Miscellaneous**
Statistic	Scope	Description	Notes
`explicit_stmt_close`, `implicit_stmt_close`	Process	Total number of close prepared statements.	A close is always considered explicit but for a failed prepare.
`mem_emalloc_count`, `mem_emalloc_ammount`, `mem_ecalloc_count`, `mem_ecalloc_ammount`, `mem_erealloc_count`, `mem_erealloc_ammount`, `mem_efree_count`, `mem_malloc_count`, `mem_malloc_ammount`, `mem_calloc_count`, `mem_calloc_ammount`, `mem_realloc_count`, `mem_realloc_ammount`, `mem_free_count`	Process	Memory management calls.	Development only.
`command_buffer_too_small`	Connection	Number of network command buffer extensions while sending commands from PHP to MySQL.	mysqlnd allocates an internal command/network buffer of `mysqlnd.net_cmd_buffer_size` (`php.ini`) bytes for every connection. If a MySQL Client Server protocol command, for example, `COM_QUERY` (normal query), does not fit into the buffer, mysqlnd will grow the buffer to what is needed for sending the command. Whenever the buffer gets extended for one connection `command_buffer_too_small` will be incremented by one. If mysqlnd has to grow the buffer beyond its initial size of `mysqlnd.net_cmd_buffer_size` (`php.ini`) bytes for almost every connection, you should consider to increase the default size to avoid re-allocations. The default buffer size is 4096 bytes, which is the smallest value possible. The default can changed either through the `php.ini` setting `mysqlnd.net_cmd_buffer_size` or using `mysqli_options(MYSQLI_OPT_NET_CMD_BUFFER_SIZE, int size)`.
`connection_reused`
