本篇文章为大家展示了MySQL中怎么设置查询超时，内容简明扼要并且容易理解，绝对能使你眼前一亮，通过这篇文章的详细介绍希望你能有所收获。
为了优化OceanBase的query timeout设置方式，特调研MySQL关于timeout的处理，记录如下。

重点解释其中几个参数：
connect_timeout:
The number of seconds that the mysqld server waits for a connect packet before respondingwith Bad handshake. The default value is 10 seconds as of MySQL 5.1.23 and 5 seconds before that. Increasing the connect_timeout value might help if clients frequently encounter errors of the form Lost connection to MySQL server at ‘XXX’, system error: errno.
解释：在获取链接时，等待握手的超时时间，只在登录时有效，登录成功这个参数就不管事了。主要是为了防止网络不佳时应用重连导致连接数涨太快，一般默认即可。
interactive_timeout:
The number of seconds the server waits for activity on an interactive connection before closing it. An interactive client is defined as a client that uses the CLIENT_INTERACTIVE option to mysql_real_connect(). See alsowait_timeout.
解释：一个持续SLEEP状态的线程多久被关闭。线程每次被使用都会被唤醒为acrivity状态，执行完Query后成为interactive状态，重新开始计时。wait_timeout不同在于只作用于TCP/IP和Socket链接的线程，意义是一样的。
MySQL可以配置连接的超时时间，这个时间如果做得太长，甚至到了10min，那么很可能发生这种情况，3000个链接都被占满而且sleep在哪，新链接进不来，导致无法正常服务。因此这个配置尽量配置一个符合逻辑的值，60s或者120s等等。
说人话：
命令行下面敲一个命令后，直至下一个命令到来之前的时间间隔为interactive_time，如果这个时间间隔超过了 interactive_timeout，则连接会被自动断开，下一个命令失败。不过一般的mysql客户端都有自动重连机制，下一个命令会在重连后执 行。
[sql]
mysql> set interactive_timeout = 1;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> show session variables like '%timeout%';

| Variable_name | Value |

| connect_timeout | 10 |
| interactive_timeout | 1 |
| wait_timeout | 28800 |

10 rows in set (0.00 sec)

[sql]
mysql> set wait_timeout = 1;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

wait_timeout:
The number of seconds the server waits for activity on a noninteractive connection (连接上没有活动命令，可能是客户端喝咖啡去了。)before closing it. Before MySQL 5.1.41, this timeout applies only to TCP/IP connections, not to connections made through Unix socket files, named pipes, or shared memory.
On thread startup, the session wait_timeout value is initialized from the global wait_timeout value or from the global interactive_timeout value, depending on the type of client
