Performance Analysis UI - Implementation Complete

Date: December 24, 2025 Status: ✅ READY FOR TESTING

Summary

Two new performance analysis tabs have been successfully added to the DBA Agent workspace:

  1. EXPLAIN Plan Analysis Tab - Analyze query execution plans and detect performance issues

Test Case 2: Complex Join

SELECT u.*, o.*
FROM users u
JOIN orders o ON u.id = o.user_id
WHERE u.status = 'active';
  • Expected: Multiple execution plan nodes
  • Join strategy analysis
  • Index recommendations

Test Case 3: Full Table Scan (from test results)

SELECT * FROM PAYMENT_TRANSFERS WHERE booking_id = 123;
  • Expected: Full table scan detected
  • Performance score: ~85
  • Recommendation: Create index on booking_id

Test Slow Query Analysis Tab

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Issue 1: "No Connection Selected"

  • Cause: No database connection chosen
  • Fix: Select a connection from the main UI before clicking the tab

Issue 2: "Failed to analyze query"

  • Cause: Backend not running or network error
  • Fix: Ensure backend is running on port 8080
  • Check: curl http://localhost:8080/actuator/health

Issue 3: "Performance Schema not available"

  • Cause: MySQL Performance Schema is disabled
  • Fix: Enable Performance Schema in MySQL config
  • Note: Slow Query tab will show no data

Issue 4: Monaco Editor not loading

  • Cause: Dynamic import failed or SSR issue
  • Fix: Refresh page, check browser console
  • Note: Editor is client-side only (ssr: false)

Issue 5: Copy button doesn't work

  • Cause: Clipboard API not available (non-HTTPS)
  • Fix: Use localhost (HTTPS not required) or enable clipboard permissions
