对于这个估算问题，有一点hack/workaround。

Auto_Increment -由于某些原因，如果您在表上设置了自动增量，则此函数将为数据库返回更准确的行数。

在探索为什么显示表信息与实际数据不匹配时发现了这一点。

SELECT
table_schema 'Database',
SUM(data_length + index_length) AS 'DBSize',
SUM(TABLE_ROWS) AS DBRows,
SUM(AUTO_INCREMENT) AS DBAutoIncCount
FROM information_schema.tables
GROUP BY table_schema;


+--------------------+-----------+---------+----------------+
| Database           | DBSize    | DBRows  | DBAutoIncCount |
+--------------------+-----------+---------+----------------+
| Core               |  35241984 |   76057 |           8341 |
| information_schema |    163840 |    NULL |           NULL |
| jspServ            |     49152 |      11 |            856 |
| mysql              |   7069265 |   30023 |              1 |
| net_snmp           |  47415296 |   95123 |            324 |
| performance_schema |         0 | 1395326 |           NULL |
| sys                |     16384 |       6 |           NULL |
| WebCal             |    655360 |    2809 |           NULL |
| WxObs              | 494256128 |  530533 |        3066752 |

9 rows in set (0.40 sec)

然后，您可以轻松地使用PHP或其他工具返回2个数据列的最大值，以给出行数的“最佳估计”。

即。

SELECT
table_schema 'Database',
SUM(data_length + index_length) AS 'DBSize',
GREATEST(SUM(TABLE_ROWS), SUM(AUTO_INCREMENT)) AS DBRows
FROM information_schema.tables
GROUP BY table_schema;

Auto Increment将始终是+1 *(表数)行，但即使有4000个表和300万行，这也是99.9%的准确性。比估计的行数好多了。

这样做的好处是，performance_schema中返回的行计数也会被擦除，因为greatest对null无效。但是，如果没有带有自动递增功能的表，这可能是个问题。

我只是跑:

show table status;

这将为您提供每个表的行数以及其他一些信息。 我曾经使用上面选择的答案，但这要简单得多。

我不确定这是否适用于所有版本，但我使用5.5与InnoDB引擎。

像@Venkatramanan和其他人一样，我找到了INFORMATION_SCHEMA。TABLES不可靠(使用InnoDB, MySQL 5.1.44)，每次运行时给出不同的行数，即使是在静态表上。这里有一种生成大型SQL语句的相对hack(但是灵活/适应性强)的方法，您可以将其粘贴到新的查询中，而不需要安装Ruby宝石之类的东西。

SELECT CONCAT(
    'SELECT "', 
    table_name, 
    '" AS table_name, COUNT(*) AS exact_row_count FROM `', 
    table_schema,
    '`.`',
    table_name, 
    '` UNION '
) 
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 
WHERE table_schema = '**my_schema**';

它产生如下输出:

SELECT "func" AS table_name, COUNT(*) AS exact_row_count FROM my_schema.func UNION                         
SELECT "general_log" AS table_name, COUNT(*) AS exact_row_count FROM my_schema.general_log UNION           
SELECT "help_category" AS table_name, COUNT(*) AS exact_row_count FROM my_schema.help_category UNION       
SELECT "help_keyword" AS table_name, COUNT(*) AS exact_row_count FROM my_schema.help_keyword UNION         
SELECT "help_relation" AS table_name, COUNT(*) AS exact_row_count FROM my_schema.help_relation UNION       
SELECT "help_topic" AS table_name, COUNT(*) AS exact_row_count FROM my_schema.help_topic UNION             
SELECT "host" AS table_name, COUNT(*) AS exact_row_count FROM my_schema.host UNION                         
SELECT "ndb_binlog_index" AS table_name, COUNT(*) AS exact_row_count FROM my_schema.ndb_binlog_index UNION 

复制粘贴，除了最后一个UNION，可以得到漂亮的输出，

+------------------+-----------------+
| table_name       | exact_row_count |
+------------------+-----------------+
| func             |               0 |
| general_log      |               0 |
| help_category    |              37 |
| help_keyword     |             450 |
| help_relation    |             990 |
| help_topic       |             504 |
| host             |               0 |
| ndb_binlog_index |               0 |
+------------------+-----------------+
8 rows in set (0.01 sec)

如果你使用数据库information_schema，你可以使用下面的mysql代码(where部分使查询不显示行为空值的表):

SELECT TABLE_NAME, TABLE_ROWS
FROM `TABLES`
WHERE `TABLE_ROWS` >=0

下面的代码为所有故事生成选择查询。只需删除最后的“UNION ALL”选择所有结果，并粘贴一个新的查询窗口运行。

SELECT 
concat('select ''', table_name ,''' as TableName, COUNT(*) as RowCount from ' , table_name , ' UNION ALL ')  as TR FROM
information_schema.tables where 
table_schema = 'Database Name'

这个存储过程列出表，统计记录，并在最后生成记录的总数。

添加此过程后运行:

CALL `COUNT_ALL_RECORDS_BY_TABLE` ();

-

过程:

DELIMITER $$

CREATE DEFINER=`root`@`127.0.0.1` PROCEDURE `COUNT_ALL_RECORDS_BY_TABLE`()
BEGIN
DECLARE done INT DEFAULT 0;
DECLARE TNAME CHAR(255);

DECLARE table_names CURSOR for 
    SELECT table_name FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = DATABASE();

DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR NOT FOUND SET done = 1;

OPEN table_names;   

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS TCOUNTS;
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE TCOUNTS 
  (
    TABLE_NAME CHAR(255),
    RECORD_COUNT INT
  ) ENGINE = MEMORY; 


WHILE done = 0 DO

  FETCH NEXT FROM table_names INTO TNAME;

   IF done = 0 THEN
    SET @SQL_TXT = CONCAT("INSERT INTO TCOUNTS(SELECT '" , TNAME  , "' AS TABLE_NAME, COUNT(*) AS RECORD_COUNT FROM ", TNAME, ")");

    PREPARE stmt_name FROM @SQL_TXT;
    EXECUTE stmt_name;
    DEALLOCATE PREPARE stmt_name;  
  END IF;

END WHILE;

CLOSE table_names;

SELECT * FROM TCOUNTS;

SELECT SUM(RECORD_COUNT) AS TOTAL_DATABASE_RECORD_CT FROM TCOUNTS;

END
