hello,
>
>I have a table with around 2,000,000 records (15 columns). I have to sync this 
>from an outside source once everyday. not all records are changed/removed 
>/new-added everyday. so what is the best way to update only those which have 
>changed/added/or deleted?
>
>i can use update_or_create but that will update (re-write the row) even if 
>nothing has changed in the row/record. wont that be an overhead? how can i 
>escape that? what would be the fastest and least resources consuming way to do 
>this table update?
>
>I also have another table with 500,000 rows and i wish to implement the same 
>solution to that too.
>
>I earlier posted this on DBIx list, as i thought i could use DBIx tools to 
>manage this. but based on response, it seems that MySQL tools would be more 
>helpful in doing it in most efficent way. Plz. advice how can i address this.

>I also considered to delete and simply recreate the table each day..... but 
>chnages/add and delete are not too many (may be a few hundreds.. max)
