Giuseppe Maxia writes about the availability of the active development/test ("pushbuild") MySQL binaries for users—on multiple platforms.
This is a wonderful step forward in bringing greater openness to
current MySQL development and in bringing greater value to the
MySQL user community!

Users familiar with the MySQL development process will remember that our developers use a tool called pushbuild, which builds the server code with the latest changes, using several operating systems, and runs the test suite. |
This tool produces one binary package for each platform where the test runs, and every day there are a few dozen of such packages, waiting to be deleted and replaced by the ones created with the next build.
For long time, several people suggested publishing these binaries for the community. Each time, there was some minor or major impediment, such as getting together different teams and requesting resources from a third one. But the community …
[Read more]You probably know that it’s possible to set configuration variables to log queries that don’t use indexes to the slow query log in MySQL. This is a good way to find tables that might need indexes.
But what if the slow query log isn’t enabled and you are using (or consulting on) MySQL 5.0 or earlier, where it can’t be enabled on the fly unless you’re using a patched server such as Percona’s enhanced builds? You can still capture these queries.
The key is knowing what it really means for a query to “not use an index.” There are two conditions that trigger this — not using an index at all, or not using a “good” index. Both of these set a bit. If either bit is set, the query is captured by the filter and logged. Both of these bits also …
