jack, this is 7.3.2 so...the only way to partition is to manually spliting
the table into multiple disks (as mentioned by Bruce)
there are four clients running the same sql (with different value in where
clause)
causing parsing allocation shared mem...
99.9 % of sorts are in mem.
i have just finished creating raw partitions.....let's see how my tables
perform now...
