Generally, updating a big table all the time is a BAD IDEA, and should

be up-to-date according to the last INSERT/UPDATE you just did, or that
you just want it to be updated some when, as long as it eventually
happens.

Actually I am trying to convince them that we don't need that log in the database at all and should log to plain text file. That would eliminate the whole question.

But thanks for your suggestion. I might use that approach if they insist
having it in the database.
