You need to make sure the query for changes is indexed and fast for the DB.
As bruce suggested, you could add a boolean column that would indicate that
the row has been changed (it can be populated using a trigger),
then you just have to index it and query the columns that have this boolean
true.
You could even call a stored procedure from servicemix so that the modified
records
are returned and set back to false at the same time (instead of having
servicemix
update them later).
