I am having a heck of a time here. Im running RH 7.0 kernel 2.2.16 on a 
PII 300, 128meg RAM. Mysql 2.23.32, php 4.04. I have a DB set up that has 4 
tables. 3 of the four only have a couple thousand records, but one table 
will have somewhere between 80k to maybe as many as a million records.

The DB is a backend for a dynamic site and I have scripts to allow the 
uploading of files. These files are CVS and are handled by php scripts. 
Every night I plan on having a cron job run a script to copy the files to a 
working directory, deleting the originals and then processing the files one 
at a time, line by line and inserting them into the table in question. 
During testing I am using a data file that has 481 records. To mimick real 
scenario, I simply copy the file giving it a bunch of new names, but the 
content is identicle. Then I run my script to import the data. Everything 
seems fine upto about 200k records. After that things seems to go awry. At 
about 400k records the import runs fine, no erros and running CHECK TABLE 
shows no problems, however, if I try to do a select, I get an error 127. If 
I up the import to ver 1 million records for testing purposes my script 
actually aborts with error 127 and check table reports corruption.

I thought perhaps it was a bug so updated via the RH RPM to mysql 3.23.36. 
I still have the same problem and my performance on small tables seems 
greatly reduced. Does anyone have any ides why this at moderat record 
counts I get thie error even though check table reports no problems? And 
why does my script abort with a corrupt table when I break 1 million 
records?

P.S. I am no where close to OS file limitations, at 1.1 million records, my 
table is about 60 meg.
