I have 2 tables, one with 1,000 entries, the other with 10,000 entries. I'll
call these table1 and table2. The query uses both tables:

SELECT <something to select> FROM table1 LEFT JOIN table2 ON (table1.ID =
table2.table1_ID) WHERE <some condition>;

table2.table1_ID is just an int that matches an ID from table1. This way I
can get several values from 2 tables with one query. This works great when
table 1 has 100 entries and table2 has 1,000 entries. But when i increase
both by a factor of 10, the query never returns anything. I let it sit for
10 mins before giving up, and my CPU usage is at 100% the whole time.  Any
suggestions as to what the problem is?

I tried this on both 3.23 and 4.0.7 and got the same results.
