The slow queries are those like...
SELECT id FROM table WHERE field like '%text%' AND ok=1 AND type=1
<<<<
WHERE field like '%text%' <-- this will not use an index. Read the manual
about fulltext. It may or may meet your needs. It works pretty good. If the
text is a word you could also build a word index table. Check the list
archives. If you are scanning for something like '<SCRIPT type=' in a field,
then you will have little luck. So the answer depends on what you are trying
to do (as always).
