mytop is a ‘top’ clone for MySQL.
mytop is a console-based (non-gui) tool for monitoring the threads and overall performance of MySQL 3.22.x, 3.23.x, and 4.x servers. It runs on most Unix systems which have Perl, DBI, and Term::ReadKey installed. And with Term::ANSIColor installed you even get color. As of version 0.7, it even runs on Windows (somewhat).
