You can run this command on your MySQL database to check table size. Please follow all the steps.

Step 1:Check your  MySQL server status

# lsof -i :mysql
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
mysqld 24709 mysql 19u IPv6 398627 0t0 TCP *:mysql (LISTEN)

Step 2:Connect MySQL database

-At my test server, I used xamp server MySQL.So MySQL command located under lampp directory. So if you installed Linux  MySQL your command probably located under  /bin or  /usr/bin.

root@redhattemplate ~]# /opt/lampp/bin/mysql -uroot

+------------------------+
19 rows in set (0.00 sec)

MariaDB [phpmyadmin]>

Step 5:Check size  of tables

SELECT table_schema as `Database`, table_name AS `Table`,
round(((data_length + index_length) / 1024 / 1024), 2) `Size in MB`
FROM information_schema.TABLES
ORDER BY (data_length + index_length) DESC;

TEST Command:

MariaDB [phpmyadmin]> SELECT table_schema as `Database`, table_name AS `Table`,
-> round(((data_length + index_length) / 1024 / 1024), 2) `Size in MB`
-> FROM information_schema.TABLES
-> ORDER BY (data_length + index_length) DESC;
+--------------------+----------------------------------------------------+------------+
| Database | Table | Size in MB |
+--------------------+----------------------------------------------------+------------+
| mysql | time_zone_transition | 4.01 |
| mysql | time_zone_transition_type | 0.39 |
+--------------------+----------------------------------------------------+------------+
198 rows in set, 19 warnings (0.02 sec)
