key buffer is about 8M key_buffer_size | 8388600
I just tried bumping my settings up to these that I found in the manual... safe_mysqld -O key_buffer=64M -O table_cache=256 \ -O sort_buffer=4M -O record_buffer=1M & It shaved a second off... 2.29, and later call took only .88 seconds once it was cached... This is running on a solaris box with... I believe 16 processors and 6 gigs of ram... Although... it is by no means dedicated to MySQL :) > How large is your key buffer? > > Jeremy > -- > Jeremy D.
