Hi,
I have a table 

   DAY : DATETIME
CAT_ID : INT
  DATA : TEXT
    ID : INT

and I have to extract all records not older than 2 weeks with given
CAT_ID (sorted by DAY).

query for that is very simple, but what if this table has 1 000 000
records? Do you think that deleting records older than eg. 2 weeks would
accelerate all operation? And is it worth the price (no archive) ?

btw. of course query is performed on table with all needed indexes.
