9.1 Memory Allocation in the MySQL Server (sql Directory)

The basic logic to use:

All things that are used only for the duration of a query are allocated in THD::mem_root through sql_alloc() or thd->alloc() except:

  • Things that may grow, like string buffers of type String. See sql/sql_string.cc.

  • Large blocks of memory used in one state of the query that can be released early. These are things like sort buffers, range trees, etc.

  • Things in libraries that are outside of MySQL‘s control (like hash tables).

Things that are needed a longer time should be alllocated with my_malloc() or through another MEMROOT.
