Hi Joseph,

> I have been trying to use mysqlimport to load a primarily read only
database with data at regular intervals. My problem occurs when my
tables are myisam. In this case all access to the database and the
tables blocks until mysqlimport completes. The -lock-tables=false
parameter does not help.  Is this the normal operation? If not how can I
still have concurrent read access to the database while mysqlimport is
running?

Correct me if I am wrong, but the write request has privilege. So ANY read
request is queued until the write request finishes. Otherwise you would
get inconsistent read results.

Am I correct assuming that you are appending the imported data to the
existing data in the database ?
