Hi Stefan,

I haven't ad experience with such a big table yet, but I would like to make a 
guess.

Depending how you use the data (often read, often write, mixed etc.) I would 
suggest setting up 2 tables. 

If you use innodb you can distribute the two tables over several disks which 
should at least reduce the access speed to the disks.

However I am not sure if you use unique Indexes which could be a concern in 
order to make should each ID refers to only a single record.

I was also thinking about merged tables, but I am believe that they have to be 
in a single database in order to work.

Best regards

Nils Valentin
