    Description

      With EITS (use_stat_tables='preferably') and correct stats in mysql.table/index_stats the following statements return the InnoDB internal estimates instead of the exact numbers:

      • SHOW TABLE STATUS
      • SHOW INDEX FROM ...

      Example results for a table with 8000 rows:

      +----------+
