Hi, I was hoping to speed up my database operations a bit by changing some colums in my database from CHAR(15) ASCII to DEC(15) UNSIGNED ZEROFILL. I was expecting a speedup as DEC(15) is more compact, and this columns are also part of InnoDB indices. In contrary to my expectations, running my test suit took approximately three times as much time, as before.
Could anybody give me a probable reason for this slowdown? Thx ImRe P.S.: Ver 5.0.24a -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
