Hi,

just wondering if there a quick way to determine the # of rows in a
mysql table.

I know I can do a count(*) but that would entail a table scan etc.

I found out that I can do the query into the information_schema table,
however, I don't get a consistent reading.
executing it multiple times, I get multiple numbers. (and no, the table
is static already, no updates/deletes etc)
