Out of interest, if you have the time, instead of doing "select count(*) from a;" can you just copy the file to another file ? Possibly read-a-block-write-a-block ? I'm curious to know whether this makes a difference. I have tried some of these things on a Mac, but rebooting doesn't make anything like so much difference on a Mac. It's slower without the reboot but faster with the reboot. However, I don't have a Mac to play with which isn't also acting as a server.
