This is much slower than Repair by sorting. So, now I know that "repair with keycache" is slower than "repair by sorting." What can I do about that? That is, how can I make the repair use sorting? I would have thought they would be part of the "alter table ..." syntax, but I haven't seen anything obvious. >It is going to take a long time to build an index on a table that big, >especially if you still have questions coming into the machine. How can I speed up creating the index? Any pointers (i.e. URLs) for a machine that has 1GB of RAM, 2GB of swap, and 2 1GHZ PIII processors? BTW, I also have Paul DuBois's MySQL book as a resource. Again, I looked but did not find anything regarding keycache vs sorting.
