Furthermore I've tested on 133K records and AUTO_INCREMENT field in the end had the value of 234076.
mysql> select count(*) from billing.phone_codes; +----------+ | count(*) | +----------+ | 133332 | +----------+ 1 row in set (0.02 sec) AUTO_INCREMENT=234076 So it basically means If I have large enough table I'd need to enlarge PRIMARY KEY storage type, because it's almost double size of the actual records. I didn't delete records in this test too, I've inserted them all via LOAD DATA. 2013/3/13 spameden <spame...@gmail.com>: > 2013/3/13 Reindl Harald <h.rei...@thelounge.net>: >> >> >> Am 12.03.2013 22:34, schrieb spameden: >>> NOTE: AUTO_INCREMENT is 32768 instead of 17923 !
