How to find:

1. total size of data in bytes, in a record
2. total size in bytes of a record (including MySQL's own header bytes)

Does this help?
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/s...quirements.html

There may be API functions in various programming interfaces like ODBC,
JDBC, or DBD that help to calculate this too. I haven't checked, so you
might want to look at the API reference docs. It depends on what
interface you are using in your applications.
