以MySQL 5.1.36为例：
在slow_query_log （注意log_slow_querys参数已经废弃）值为ON的情况下（默认为OFF），当一条SQL语句执行的时间超过了long_query_time 预设的时间（默认为10s，同时精确到微秒）时，默认（log_output值为FIFL时）就会把这种慢查询记录到：slow_query_log_file值所指定的文件中。
mysql> select @@global.log_output;
+---------------------+
| @@global.log_output |
+---------------------+
| FILE |
+---------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
注意在MySQL5.1就开始支持把慢查询的日志记录放到mysq.slow_log中，但需要设置log_output变量值为TABLE：
mysql> set @@global.log_output='TABLE';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> desc mysql.slow_log;
+----------------+------------------+------+-----+-------------------+-----------------------------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+----------------+------------------+------+-----+-------------------+-----------------------------+
| start_time | timestamp | NO | | CURRENT_TIMESTAMP | on update CURRENT_TIMESTAMP |
| user_host | mediumtext | NO | | NULL | |
| query_time | time | NO | | NULL | |
| lock_time | time | NO | | NULL | |
| rows_sent | int(11) | NO | | NULL | |
| rows_examined | int(11) | NO | | NULL | |
| db | varchar(512) | NO | | NULL | |
| last_insert_id | int(11) | NO | | NULL | |
| insert_id | int(11) | NO | | NULL | |
| server_id | int(10) unsigned | NO | | NULL | |
| sql_text | mediumtext | NO | | NULL | |
+----------------+------------------+------+-----+-------------------+-----------------------------+
11 rows in set (0.01 sec)
注意，文件记录和写表记录只会有一种生效。
修改之前：
mysql> show variables like '%slow%';
+---------------------+------------------------------------------------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+---------------------+------------------------------------------------+
| log_slow_queries | OFF |
| slow_launch_time | 2 |
| slow_query_log | OFF |
| slow_query_log_file | /usr/local/mysql-5.1.36/var/localhost-slow.log |
+---------------------+------------------------------------------------+
mysql>
4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
注意这个时候localhost-slow.log文件是不存在的：
mysql> system cat /usr/local/mysql-5.1.36/var/localhost-slow.log
cat: /usr/local/mysql-5.1.36/var/localhost-slow.log: No such file or directory
修改slow_query_log的方法：
mysql> warnings;
Show warnings enabled.
mysql> set @@global.log_slow_queries=ON;
Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.01 sec)
Warning (Code 1287): The syntax '@@log_slow_queries' is deprecated and will be removed in MySQL 7.0. Please use '@@slow_query_log' instead
注意已经不再使用log_slow_queries参数，用slow_query_log替代，这样修改slow_query_log时，log_slow_queries也会被隐性地修改：
mysql> set @@global.slow_query_log=ON;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
修改之后：
mysql> show variables like '%slow%';
+---------------------+------------------------------------------------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+---------------------+------------------------------------------------+
| log_slow_queries | ON |
| slow_launch_time | 2 |
| slow_query_log | ON |
| slow_query_log_file | /usr/local/mysql-5.1.36/var/localhost-slow.log |
+---------------------+------------------------------------------------+
4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
这时localhost-slow.log文件已经建立：
mysql> system cat /usr/local/mysql-5.1.36/var/localhost-slow.log
/usr/local/mysql-5.1.36/libexec/mysqld, Version: 5.1.36-log (Source distribution). started with:
Tcp port: 3306 Unix socket: /tmp/mysql.sock
Time Id Command Argument
分析时我们可以直接查询慢查询日志，也可以通过mysqldumpslow命令（推荐）来解析这个文件：
[root@localhost var]# mysqldumpslow localhost-slow.log
Reading mysql slow query log from localhost-slow.log
Count: 1 Time=0.00s (0s) Lock=0.00s (0s) Rows=0.0 (0), 0users@0hosts
我们可以通过sleep函数来做简单的测试：
如：select sleep(11);
