What's the relationship you're implying between memory and locking? Multi-version concurrency doesn't necessarily mean the older versions that are being read from have to be entirely in memory. > InnoDB will lock on a query that doesn't use an index. It shouldn't lock on a SELECT query, regardless of the indexes involved. - Perrin -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=arch...@jab.org
