hello folks i've read your intresting topic . and maybe i can help in something here ,cause i've experienced this problem my self when i was using mysql :( anyway ,i used this solution as follows :
The MyISAM "compressed" row format is a read-only. Created from a regular table using the myisampack tool, the compression ratio can be up to 75%. Row data is still directly accessible, rows are individually compressed using algorithms appropriate for each column type. This storage method is particularly suited for archival of sales records, logs, or other periodical data. It can also be useful for read-only data that is imported from an external source. Compressed row tables can be stored on a CD or other read-only media, and the MySQL Server can access them in that form. please refer to this link its very helpfull http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/storage-engine/part_2.html regards younes al abwah . --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jolug" group.
