Hello, all -

Still kidna new to MySQL, so please forgive me if this is somewhat dumb question...

When issuing 'SHOW TABLE STATUS', I can see clearly that under the Rows column for my table, I see 17333. However, when issuing a 'COUNT (*) FROM table', I see 17203 - a difference of 130.

We're really pounding this database, but I wouldn't expect any sort of data to become out of sync. Is this a corruption of tables? We're using the InnoDB storage engine for this particular table, if that helps.

Thanks!

Hi -

So, now this has made me think here. If 'SHOW TABLE STATUS' only shows an "estimate" of the number of rows contained in a table, how accurate is the rest of the data in 'SHOW TABLE STATUS'?

What I'm looking for is to try to find some exact numbers, such as physical data size on disk, queries/second, etc etc. An "estimate" would not give me a very good idea of what I'm looking at.

Is there a more accurate way of getting table information, aside from 'SHOW TABLE STATUS'?

THanks!
