Hi there, I am wondering if it would be anyhow possible to make a search on a mysql textfield faster. Right now the table contains 294000 entries and takes about 40 MB of space. Is there a way to apply a index with a resonable amount of disk space? I am also not so sure if I should use text or smalltext columns as the info may vary between 1 and 1000 chars. A query for LIKE 'test%' takes about 20 s right now.
Thanx for any help on that, Andy --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
