I have built a search facility too and in doing so I have added indexes to the table to try to make the search results appear quicker.
I have tried selects within the MySQL command window and they are much quicker. For example I have selected all from the table in question and it returned every record (2,000 of them) in 8.9 seconds. Selecting specific records takes fractions of a second. The web pages are taking minutes before timing out.
My system is 1ghz processor, 650ram, Windows ME running Personal Web Server and MySQL 4.0.15.
Any advice on how I might be able to improve performance with what I have would be appreciated.
TIA
