Has anyone tried using the log_output option in mysql 5.1 to have the
general log put into a table and not a flat file?  I used it for a while
before having to downgrade back to 5.0 but thought it was a great idea.  I'm
curious to see if anyone feels it helps analysis.

I tried that once, and ran into some problems. Depending on your exact version, you might experience the same.

(also has a number of good comments on analysis tools)

And yes, having the data available in a table is a Good Thing for analysis.

I have 7 days worth of general log data totalling 4.4GB.

I want to analyze this data to get:

a) queries per second, minute, hour and day
b) a count of the number of selects versus write statements (delete,
insert, replace and update)
c) a variation of the above with "select, replace, delete and insert"
versus "update"

How can I do this?

I've looked at mysqlsla which is complex, works well but does not
quite get what I want. [1]

I looked at MyProfi 0.18 which looks like it will get some of the
answers but runs out of memory working on the smallest log file
(mysql.log) even with memory_limit in php.ini set to 1024MB [2]

Any pointers please? If all else fails, I will prolly write a perl
script to munge it.
