I finally figured out that we had been running large databases
without indexes working at all.  It turns out that if I use mysqldump
to dump out a database, then drop/create the database and build
from the dump, none of the indexes work.  Things slow to a crawl.
I found inadvertantly that by issuing any "alter table" query to
a table, the indexes start working again.

Is there any reason for this?

Thanks,

Toby
