i use MyISAM storage,the MYI file is more than 500Gb. most of the sql is
select with many 'and','or','order by',for example:

SELECT
fref,fstart,fstop,fsource,fmethod,fscore,fstrand,fphase,gclass,gname,ftarget_start,ftarget_stop,fdata.fid,fdata.gid
 FROM fdata,ftype,fgroup
 WHERE   fgroup.gid = fdata.gid
  AND ftype.ftypeid = fdata.ftypeid
 AND fdata.fref='chr18'
    AND (fbin='10000000000'
     OR fbin between '1000000000' and '1000000000'
     OR fbin between '99999999.9999999' and '100000000'
     OR fbin between '10000000.0000049' and '10000000.0000051'
     OR fbin between '1000000.0000549' and '1000000.0000551'
     OR fbin between '100000.0005529' and '100000.0005531'
     OR fbin between '10000.0055379' and '10000.0055381'
     OR fbin between '1000.0553839' and '1000.0553841')
    AND fdata.fstop>='55384910' AND fdata.fstart<='55384989'
    AND  ((fmethod = 'genotype' AND fsource = 'SoapSNP') OR (fmethod =
'gt_novel' AND fsource = 'SoapSNP') OR (fmethod = 'SNP' AND fsource =
'MutaGeneSys_06JUNE07') OR (fmethod = 'snp' AND fsource = 'HapMap_gt') OR
(fmethod = 'similarity') OR (fmethod = 'HSP') OR (fmethod = 'match') OR
(fmethod = 'CDS' AND fsource = 'UCSC_1') OR (fmethod = '5\'-UTR' AND fsource
= 'UCSC_1') OR (fmethod = '3\'-UTR' AND fsource = 'UCSC_1') OR (fmethod =
'transcription_start_site' AND fsource = 'UCSC_1') OR (fmethod =
'polyA_site' AND fsource = 'UCSC_1') OR (fmethod = 'UTR' AND fsource =
'UCSC_1') OR (fmethod = 'five_prime_untranslated_region' AND fsource =
'UCSC_1') OR (fmethod = 'three_prime_untranslated_region' AND fsource =
'UCSC_1') OR (fmethod = 'five_prime_UTR' AND fsource = 'UCSC_1') OR (fmethod
= 'three_prime_UTR' AND fsource = 'UCSC_1') OR (fmethod = 'exon' AND fsource
= 'UCSC_1') OR (fmethod = 'mRNA' AND fsource = 'UCSC_1'))
 ORDER BY fgroup.gname;

there is a longblob column in the table, but even i do not  select this blob
column, the i/o is still higher.

i have 16G memery in total, the oracle database take 1/4 of them, i try to
increasing the key_buffer_size to 2048M and tmp_table_size to 1024M,but the
machine crashed out of memery in one day,the mysqld takes over 18G memery!

i use show profiles find that 'sending data' and 'copying to tmp table'
takes lots of time.
