How to Install Mytop from source on Centos 6
Mytop is an open source and free monitoring program for MySQL and MariaDB databases was written by Jeremy Zawodny using Perl language. It is much similar in look and feel of the most famous Linux system monitoring tool called top.
Mytop program provides a command-line shell interface to monitor real time MySQL/MariaDB threads, queries per second, process list and performance of databases and gives a idea for the database administrator to better optimize the server to handle heavy load.
