Already spent a week figuring how to get the SELECT to work fast when a few results are returned, os all appropriate columns are indexed ;-) > u can find more on this page > http://www.linux-mag.com/cgi-bin/printer.pl?issue=2001-06&article=mysql > i hope this will help you. Yup, had a good read... My specific problem isn't with indexing as such, I reckon I have prettymuch optimal indexes for the SELECTs I'm doing, but I have problem when _lots_ of results are returned. Is there any efficient way I can just get the count of rows returned by a SELECT rahter than making MySQL go through all the hassle of generating all the results and returning them to me? cheers, Chris mysql, etc --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
