• The MySQL server running the routine being debugged can be any version between 5.0 and 5.6,
running on Windows, Linux, or any other supported platform.
• We recommend always running debug sessions on test and development servers, rather than
against a MySQL production server, because debugging can cause temporary performance issues
or even deadlocks. The instrumented versions of the routines being debugged use locks, that the
rest of the production code may not be aware of.
