I have a table with ~100,000,000 rows. I recently discovered that I need to start using one of the non-indexed columns in WHERE clauses. As expected the performance is horrid. I decided to bite the bullet and create an index (innodb):
mysql> show full processlist\G *************************** 1. row *************************** Id: 109496 User: root Host: localhost db: orson Command: Query Time: 161079 State: copy to tmp table Info: create index ix_card on game (ender) Its already been running 2 days. I probably need to index some more columns in another table -- is there anything that can be done to speed this up? dump and re-import is impractical. Server is decent -- 4xcpu, 16GB RAM...
