Current Version v2.1 - released on Jul 5th, 2026 See CHANGELOG section for more info --- I know mytop - just show me how to install it 1. Download mytop directly into /usr/local/bin/ and make it executable 2. Run anywhere (the defaults work just fine on Debian 11+, Ubuntu 22.04+ and RHEL distros v7 or newer) --- ABOUT This is a fork of the original mytop Perl script, updated for MySQL 8.x & MariaDB 10.3+ (or newer) releases. It is not a half-baked todo-when-I-get-the-time fork. As a professional sysadmin, I had used mytop for years. My gradual switch to Ubuntu Server 24.04 though left me with Innotop as the only available (maintained) choice, which simply does not work right, especially when it comes to explaining queries. Plus it never \"clicked\" as a utility. You had to devote way too many brain cells to configure Innotop just to get the basics that mytop provided out of the box (go figure...). As such, forking mytop was the only sensible thing to do. And as long as I'm active as a sysadmin (17+ years already), I'll keep it updated. Yes, it has been \"vibe coded\" with the help of Anthropic's Claude (Perl was never my domain), but I have tested it extensively and since it's a daily tool for me, I'm gonna keep on maintaining it, as well as examine a possible rewrite to another language in the future.
