mysql 探查器 "Sending data"

Question

有没有对这些状态的解释？

http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/using-new-query-profiler.html

我的具体问题是关于这个查询:

select count(*)
from 135_5m.record_updates u, 135_5m.records r
where  r.record_id = u.record_id  and 
  (u.date_updated > null or null is null)  and 
  u.date_updated <= '2011-01-03';

它返回一个数字 - 4053904。那么为什么大部分时间都花在“发送数据”上呢？只是名字不好吗？ “发送数据”一定不仅仅是发送数据吗？

正在执行意味着线程已经开始执行，发送数据显然涵盖了行的处理和将计数发送回客户端。
