Hi there, I wanted to sort the records in one of my tables (205,000,000 entries) to test if this will give me any speed increase. It is an MyISAM table, and was trying to use myisamchk -R 2 user. But what I get in return is a core dump and that the index file is not working anymore...
I am using MySQL 4.0.12 on IRIX 6.5 release 15m create statement: CREATE TABLE `user` ( `e mail` varchar(100) NOT NULL default '', `phoneNr` varchar(20) NOT NULL default '', `id` smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL auto increment, `username` varchar(10) NOT NULL default '', `password` varchar(10) NOT NULL default '', `firstname` varchar(100) default '', `lastname` varchar(100) default '', `group ref` tinyint(3) unsigned default NULL, `comment` varchar(20) default NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`), UNIQUE KEY `username` (`username`) ) TYPE=MyISAM; Unfortunately I can't find a way to get around this problem. Can you help me?
