The database name performance_schema is
      lowercase. The names of tables in the database are uppercase.
      Normal case sensitivity rules apply, so on systems with
      case-sensitive file names, the database name and table names must
      be specified in the lettercase just indicated. This behavior can
      be modified by setting the
      lower_case_table_names system
      variable.
    
      Most tables in the performance_schema database
      are read only and cannot be modified. Some of the setup tables
      have columns that can be modified to affect Performance Schema
      operation. Truncation is allowed to clear collected events or
      aggregation counters, so TRUNCATE
      TABLE can be used on tables containing those kinds of
      information, such as tables named with a prefix of
      EVENTS_WAITS.
    
Privileges are as for other databases and tables:
