We have our own storage engine that talks an API to our own C++ server that stores the graph. Doing it with a pure myISAM engine is possible but it's way to slow. Doing a self table join or subselect is really the only way doing it, less you want to have some application logic that issues 1000s of selects. > > Balazs > > > -- > MySQL General Mailing List > For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql > To unsubscribe: > http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
