PROCESSLIST

PROCESSLIST, just like SHOW PROCESSLIST, is used to view the requests that are being handled.

The PROCESSLIST table has additional columns not present in SHOW PROCESSLIST:

• A DIGEST column to show the digest of the SQL statement.
• A MEM column to show the memory used by the request that is being processed, in bytes.
• A DISK column to show the disk usage in bytes.
• A TxnStart column to show the start time of the transaction.
• A RESOURCE_GROUP column to show the resource group name.
• A SESSION_ALIAS column to show the alias of the current session.

CLUSTER_PROCESSLIST

CLUSTER_PROCESSLIST is the cluster system table corresponding to PROCESSLIST. It is used to query the PROCESSLIST information of all TiDB nodes in the cluster. The table schema of CLUSTER_PROCESSLIST has one more column than PROCESSLIST, the INSTANCE column, which stores the address of the TiDB node this row of data is from.
