Hello ,
I need help with heap tables and calculating memory usage.  I checked
in the Manual and found a formula, but I need help
deciphering it ;)

" The memory needed for one row in a HEAP table is:

SUM_OVER_ALL_KEYS(max_length_of_key + sizeof(char*) * 2)
+ ALIGN(length_of_row+1, sizeof(char*))

sizeof(char*) is 4 on 32-bit machines and 8 on 64-bit machines. "

can anyone explain me what this means?
sql,query
