reason: “预扣费”通常表示预先扣除费用，容易使人误以为 RU 是货币费用；此处实际是预扣 RU。

已采纳该措辞，并同步了 pingcap/tidb#69868 的改动：默认值更新为 4194304（即 4 MiB），同时补充说明设为 0 表示关闭按字节数分页。

TiDB v9.0 tidb_paging_size_bytes SESSION GLOBAL SET_VAR SET_VAR optimizer hint official documentation
💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
In TiDB, tidb_paging_size_bytes is a system variable introduced to control byte-budget paging for coprocessor requests [1][2]. Key details regarding this variable: - Scope and Default: It is a GLOBAL and SESSION scoped variable [1]. The default value is 0, which means the feature is disabled [1]. - Purpose: It allows users to set a byte budget for coprocessor RPCs [1]. When enabled (set to a value greater than 0), TiDB forwards this byte budget to the coprocessor to manage paging based on data size, independent of row-count paging [1]. - SET_VAR Support: The variable is explicitly allowed to be used within the SET_VAR optimizer hint [1]. This enables users to temporarily apply a specific byte-budget limit to a single SQL statement [3][4]. - Integration: The feature is designed to work in conjunction with TiDB's Resource Control (RC) system [1][5]. Paging is generally applied when the resource group associated with the statement has a hard-capped (limited) burst [5]. Example Usage with SET_VAR: SELECT /*+ SET_VAR(tidb_paging_size_bytes=1048576) */ * FROM table_name; This hint sets the byte-budget to 1 MiB for the duration of that specific SELECT statement [1][4].

💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
In the TiDB source code (specifically within the sysvar.go file located in the sessionctx/variable package), TiDBPagingSizeBytes is a system variable that requires the IsHintUpdatableVerified flag to be set to true [1]. This configuration enables the variable to be modified using the SET_VAR optimizer hint [1]. The technical requirement for setting IsHintUpdatableVerified: true ensures that the system variable is explicitly marked as eligible for hint-based updates, allowing users to control the paging size at the statement level without modifying global or session-wide settings permanently [1]. This is a standard pattern in the TiDB codebase for exposing system variables to the hint mechanism [1][2].

TiDB "global paging byte budget" tidb_paging_size_bytes SET GLOBAL SESSION
💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
The system variable tidb_paging_size_bytes is a configuration parameter in TiDB used to implement byte-granular paging for coprocessor requests [1][2]. Purpose and Functionality TiDB's coprocessor paging protocol traditionally splits pages based on row counts [1]. The tidb_paging_size_bytes variable introduces a byte-granular limit, allowing response volume to be bounded by bytes [1]. This is particularly useful for Resource Control (RC) workloads, as it enables more precise RU (Request Unit) pre-charging in PD (Placement Driver) by providing a byte budget to the coprocessor RPC [1][3]. Configuration and Scope - Default Value: The default value is 0, which signifies that byte-budget paging is disabled [1][4]. - Scope: The variable is both GLOBAL and SESSION scoped [1][4]. - Usage: You can modify it using the SET statement, for example: - SET GLOBAL tidb_paging_size_bytes = <value>; - SET SESSION tidb_paging_size_bytes = <value>; - SET_VAR Hint: It is allowed to be used with the SET_VAR hint for temporary modification during statement execution [1]. Important Considerations - RC Integration: The byte budget is generally effective only when Resource Control is enabled and the relevant resource group has a non-negative adjusted burst limit [1][5]. TiDB automatically resolves the effective byte budget based on the resource group's runtime state [5]. - Compatibility: This feature requires support on both the TiDB side and the TiKV side (via coprocessor.Request paging fields) [1][5]. If a request does not meet the necessary conditions (e.g., non-RC workloads or non-DAG requests), the budget is treated as 0 [1].

保留 SESSION | GLOBAL 作用域和 SET_VAR 支持。
TiDB 的 TiDBPagingSizeBytes 注册为 GLOBAL | SESSION 变量，并支持 SET_VAR。因此，SET SESSION 和未指定作用域的 SET 均有效。该变量虽为内部变量，但不改变这些设置契约。请恢复正确的元数据，并改写限制说明；实际分页仍受资源管控条件限制。
