hello!

im storing pretty big amounts of customer data in a mysql databases.
its about 2 million rows. what im wondering about now is, how does mysql
perform joins on such amounts of data?

i was planning to split the info in at least 3 tables: a general 
customer table,
a address table, and a contact table. since also other needs than 
just customers,
for storing addresses and contacts.

would it perform better though to store all that in one single table or is is
it okay to split it up in 3 and join them later then, depening on 
what information
is needed?


thanks alot.

florian
