Hi you could try:

1. disable autocommit while inserting those records, then commit after finished.
2. You could try insert multiple column like this

  insert into tableX values (a,b,c), (c,d,e), (e,f,g) .......

I am using mysql5.0 on Hp-UX. IT took about 14 hours to insert 1.7 millin 
records. How do I make my insert run faster.The table has three foreign key 
references and the referencing columns are indexed . Is that impacting the 
insert statement performance.


Thanks for the help
