Hi all , 
 
I have a relatively simple query that is taking longer than I think it
should. Can anyone possibly give me some idea why this might be or any
potential bottleneck areas I might want to check out?
 
thanks!
 
Here is some information. 
 
The query below takes around 8 seconds, and returns 3253 rows.
 
Mysql Version: 4.1.7-standard-log
Operating System: Linux 2.4.20-8smp
Query:SELECT ID FROM Offers_To_Buy FORCE INDEX(scdd) WHERE subcatID = 72
;
...
...
3253 rows in set (8.00 sec)
 
Explain says: 
mysql> EXPLAIN SELECT ID FROM Offers_To_Buy FORCE INDEX(scdd) WHERE
subcatID = 72 ;
