Altavista and dogpile tops the list. Is google googling?

I was looking after some good tool/script available which could provide me with detailed analysis and found Racker Hacker to be one of the useful script. I use it regularly now as part of the tuning.

Basically, MySQLTuner is a high-performance MySQL tuning script written in perl that will provide the user with a snapshot of a MySQL server’s health. Based on the statistics gathered, specific recommendations will be provided that will increase a MySQL server’s efficiency and performance.
