innodb的锁到底占用多少内存

举个简单的例子：

CREATE TABLE `sample` (
  `i` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `j` varchar(255) default NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY  (`i`),
  KEY `j` (`j`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8

mysql> show table status like "sample" \G;
*************************** 1. row ***************************
           Name: sample
         Engine: InnoDB
        Version: 10
     Row_format: Compact
           Rows: 1638757
 Avg_row_length: 61
    Data_length: 100253696
Max_data_length: 0
   Index_length: 128974848
      Data_free: 0
 Auto_increment: 1638401
    Create_time: 2006-07-12 07:31:51
    Update_time: NULL
     Check_time: NULL
      Collation: utf8_general_ci
       Checksum: NULL
 Create_options:
        Comment: InnoDB free: 1591296 kB
1 row in set (0.27 sec)

这个表有1638400条记录，如果通过加只读锁看看：

mysql> begin;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql>  select count(i) from sample lock in share mode;
+----------+
| count(i) |
+----------+
|  1638400 |
+----------+
1 row in set (7.02 sec)

show engine innodb status看下：

History list length 5
Total number of lock structs in row lock hash table 6092
LIST OF TRANSACTIONS FOR EACH SESSION:
—TRANSACTION 0 42306982, ACTIVE 89 sec, process no 10099, OS thread id 1878960
6093 lock struct(s), heap size 503104

有503104字节用来锁1638400条记录，每行小于3bits,那么互斥锁占用多少内存呢？

mysql> begin;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql>  select count(i) from sample for update;
+----------+
| count(i) |
+----------+
|  1638400 |
+----------+
1 row in set (8.60 sec)

show engine innodb status的结果是：

History list length 5
Total number of lock structs in row lock hash table 6092
LIST OF TRANSACTIONS FOR EACH SESSION:
—TRANSACTION 0 42306989, ACTIVE 195 sec, process no 10099, OS thread id 1878960
6093 lock struct(s), heap size 503104
MySQL thread id 7429, query id 24542 localhost root

和前一个占用的内存一样，模糊匹配呢？

mysql> begin;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> select count(*) from sample where j like "5%" lock in share mode;
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
|   102216 |
+----------+
1 row in set (4.44 sec)

show engine innodb status显示：

LIST OF TRANSACTIONS FOR EACH SESSION:
—TRANSACTION 0 42306999, ACTIVE 133 sec, process no 10099, OS thread id 1878960
441 lock struct(s), heap size 44352

100w行大概消耗44KB，每行小于4bits。

整个上面来看占用的内存还是很少的。
