Hi everyone, What is the best field type to use for an ID field which is the primary key and auto-increment?
I wanted to use SMALLINT UNSIGNED because its half the bytes of INT but was wondering what happens when it reaches 65535, does the auto-increment go back to 1 or will it cause an error? Should one use INT instead?
