Hello Fabrice, thanks a lot for your help. I just started to use sysdig. I wonder if there's anything this tool can not measure... ;)
This would be great if you could add the queue usage. I know that in-band mode is not the preferred solution. But there are situations where it is the better match. And it is kind of plug and play, which can be very useful. I will also replace MySQL by Percona and see if there is a difference ...
