  select * from system.macros;

• Check the database capacity.

  select sum(rows) as "Total number of rows", formatReadableSize(sum(data_uncompressed_bytes)) as "Original size", formatReadableSize(sum(data_compressed_bytes)) as "Compression size", round(sum(data_compressed_bytes) / sum(data_uncompressed_bytes) * 100, 0) "Compression rate" from system.parts;

• Query the capacity of the test table. Add and modify the WHERE clause based on the site requirements.

  select sum(rows) as "Total number of rows", formatReadableSize(sum(data_uncompressed_bytes)) as "Original size", formatReadableSize(sum(data_compressed_bytes)) as "Compression size", round(sum(data_compressed_bytes) / sum(data_uncompressed_bytes) * 100, 0) "Compression rate" from system.parts where table in ('test') and partition like '2020-11-%' group by table;
