I don't know what that is, but I think you'd better look at something closer to the bone, like SHOW INNODB STATUS. > Explain (copy as text and copy as Excel attached) seems to indicate that it > is fairly good although the first step does get quite a few rows. EXPLAIN isn't really relevant to table locking. InnoDB tables should never let readers block writers for a simple SELECT. > Does anyone have any ideas? Did you check that your tables are InnoDB?
