There's a fundamental problem with B-trees - inserts in a big B-tree
can be very slow, cause it may require tree rebalancing.
One workaround for this problem is partitioning. MySQL 5.1 will have
built-in partitioning support, but the idea itself is very simple, and
you can achieve the same effect by manually spreading data among
tables.
