The ANALYZE TABLES
statement collects statistics about all the tables in a specified database to be used by the query optimizer to find a better query execution plan.
ANALYZE TABLES [ { FROM | IN } database_name ] COMPUTE STATISTICS [ NOSCAN ]
{ FROM |
IN } database_name
Specifies the name of the database to be analyzed. Without a database name, ANALYZE
collects all tables in the current database that the current user has permission to analyze.
[ NOSCAN ]
Collects only the table's size in bytes (which does not require scanning the entire table).
