The events_stages_history table contains the most recent 10 stage events per thread. The table size may be changed by modifying the performance_schema_events_stages_history_size system variable at server startup. As new events are added to the table, older events are discarded if the table is full. Events are not added to the table until they have ended.

The events_stages_history table has the same structure as events_stages_current. See Section 21.9.4.1, “The events_stages_current Table”.

The events_stages_history table can be truncated with TRUNCATE TABLE.

The events_stages_history table was added in MySQL 5.6.3.
