Description:
The last paragraph of the Advice" section of the Temporary Tables To Disk Ratio Excessive advisor reads as follows:

"Keep in mind that tmp_table_size is a per thread variable, so this amount of memory may used by all connected threads."

Should perhaps read:

"...this amount of memory may *be* used by *each connected thread*."

It looks like the word "be" is missing. Doesn't each thread us the "tmp_table_size" amount of memory rather than all?

How to repeat:
Click on the advisor and look at the "Details" tab.

Suggested fix:
See above.

Setting the Showstopper flag to test a change to the Merlin bug stats page.  Will unset later.

Done with testing on the bug stats page so I'm unsetting the Showstopper flag.
