[PHP-DB] Potential for optimizing a huge table for querries?

2001-12-27 Thread Andy

Hi guys,

I would like to optimize a tabel with 2.3 mio entries for querries

The table is not gonna be changed afterwards, no entries are gonna be added.
It just supports info.

currently it looks like that:

ID: int(7)
city: varchar(50)
country_code char(2)
province: char(2)

indexes:
country_code
province

Type: MyISAM

Querry on country_code AND province

Does anybody know if this has potential to optimize?

Cheers Andy

Mysql has support for indexes on two or more fields. So you can create index on 
country_code AND province.
At the moment I cannot remember the syntax but look at the docs www.mysql.com/doc/ to 
find it.


HTH
