Hello Rick, >Run your query twice; take the second time. For most queries the first run >brings everything into cache, then the second gives you a repeatable, though >cached, timing. Yes, but I need cache to be > my database size to prevent other pages from pushing out pages for my query, right? Or I need to do at the dedicated server..

These numbers are >unaffected by caching. What variable exactly should I take? Why can't I use" Innodb_pages_read"? That is number of page reads regardless its source (pool or disk), is not it? >1GB buffer_pool? You have only 2GB of available RAM? Normally, if you are >running only InnoDB, the buffer_pool should be set to about 70% of available >RAM. I will increase it now. But I will need to disable swapping also to prevent my OS from swapping out InnoDB pages.
