Sometimes I like to run contests to see who has earned the most. `members` is a table that contains all my users. `ptsContestExclude` is a table of members of whom I would like to exclude from the contest. What I do first is group the table `ptsSignups` by member id, and calculate a sum of how much they earned. Then I reorder that sum in Descending order so the highest earned is on top. This `ptsSignups` table contains 82752 rows and is 75KB big. It runs extremely slow. I tried to create an index for it but it failed to increase performance. Any help is appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Help-indexing-this-query.-tf3059045.html#a8505554 Sent from the MySQL - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
