I am currently using MySQL to warehouse real-time data, and I have a couple
of questions regarding AUTO_INCREMENT columns.

OS: Linux/Solaris
MySQL version: 3.23.33
Table Types: MYISAM


1) The data is only stored for 24hrs.  If I do continuous deletes from the
tables, will the AUTO_INCREMENT columns reuse the deleted numbers?

2) I was wondering if the AUTO_INCREMENT columns wrapped back to 0 once they
run out of numbers on the top end?

3) If neither of these cases are true, is there a way to simulate number 2?

Thanks,
