I am on MySQL 5, and I have tried to do the conversion using ALTER TABLE command. With the same very slow result.

Let MySQL worry about conversion. You may also want to tweek the innodb system variables (show variables like 'innodb%) for better InnoDB performance prior to trying this. ----- Original Message ----- From: Mikhail Berman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: mysql@lists.mysql.com Sent: Wednesday, November 1, 2006 10:31:13 AM GMT-0500 US/Eastern Subject: MyISAM to InnoDB conversion help Hi everyone, I am hoping to get help with extremely slow performance of MyISAM to InnoDB conversion.
