You may want more indexes but you might be getting killed because you already have too many.
To test - try loading into a table without indexes and see if it makes a difference. At the very least - check to see if the primary index which starts with 'dic' can make your special 'dic' index superfluous. If write speed is a bottleneck you might consider Raid-1 instead of Raid-5. Reading lots of rows via index is a killer. Depending on your hardware it may be cheaper to table scan 50 rows than to read 1 via index. However, this requires partitioning of the data based on some column which appears in every query and acts as an initial filter. If you are lucky enough to be in that situation - consider a MERGE table. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
