Key Metrics on Performance Overview |
Learn key metrics displayed on the Performance Overview dashboard. |
If you use TiUP to deploy the TiDB cluster, the monitoring system (Prometheus & Grafana) is deployed at the same time. For more information, see TiDB Monitoring Framework Overview.
The Grafana dashboard is divided into a series of sub dashboards which include PD, TiDB, TiKV, Node_exporter, Overview, and Performance Overview. A lot of metrics are there to help you diagnose.
The Performance Overview dashboard orchestrates the metrics of TiDB, PD, and TiKV, and presents each of them in the following sections:
-
Overview: Database time and SQL execution time summary. By checking different colors in the overview, you can quickly identify the database workload profile and the performance bottleneck.
-
Load profile: Key metrics and resource usage, including database QPS, connection information, the MySQL command types the application interacts with TiDB, database internal TSO and KV request OPS, and resource usage of the TiKV and TiDB.
-
Top-down latency breakdown: Query latency versus connection idle time ratio, query latency breakdown, TSO/KV request latency during execution, breakdown of write latency within TiKV.
With the Performance Overview Dashboard, you can analyze performance efficiently, and confirm whether the bottleneck of user response time is in the database. If the bottleneck is in the database, you can identify the bottleneck inside the database, with database time overview, workload profile and SQL latency breakdown. For details, see Performance Analysis and Tuning.
The following sections illustrate the metrics on the Performance Overview dashboard.
- database time: Total database time per second
- sql_type: Database time consumed by each type of SQL statements per second
- database time: Total database time per second
- get token/parse/compile/execute: Database time consumed in four SQL processing phases
The SQL execution phase is in green and other phases are in red on general. If non-green areas are large, it means much database time is consumed in other phases than the execution phase and further cause analysis is required.
- execute time: Database time consumed during SQL execution per second
- tso_wait: Concurrent TSO waiting time per second during SQL execution
- kv request type: Time waiting for each KV request type per second during SQL execution. The total KV request wait time might exceed SQL execution time, because KV requests are concurrent.
- tiflash_mpp: Time of processing TiFlash requests per second during SQL execution.
Green metrics stand for common KV write requests (such as prewrite and commit), blue metrics stand for common read requests, purple metrics stand for TiFlash MPP requests, and metrics in other colors stand for unexpected situations which you need to pay attention to. For example, pessimistic lock KV requests are marked red and TSO waiting is marked dark brown.
If non-blue or non-green areas are large, it means there is a bottleneck during SQL execution. For example:
- If serious lock conflicts occur, the red area will take a large proportion.
- If excessive time is consumed in waiting TSO, the dark brown area will take a large proportion.

, INSERT
, and UPDATE

divided by tso - cmd
is the average size of TSO request batches per second.

Duration: Execution time
- The duration from receiving a request from the client to TiDB till TiDB executing the request and returning the result to the client. In general, client requests are sent in the form of SQL statements; however, this duration can include the execution time of commands such as
COM_PING
,COM_SLEEP
,COM_STMT_FETCH
, andCOM_SEND_LONG_DATA
. - TiDB supports Multi-Query, which means the client can send multiple SQL statements at one time, such as
select 1; select 1; select 1;
. In this case, the total execution time of this query includes the execution time of all SQL statements.
- The duration from receiving a request from the client to TiDB till TiDB executing the request and returning the result to the client. In general, client requests are sent in the form of SQL statements; however, this duration can include the execution time of commands such as

-
99: P99 duration to execute all requests
