Context: MySQL 4.0.18 on redhat linux 2.4.20-28.8smp kernel. 

Usage scenario: Around 10-20 users daily (not necessarily concurrent)

I have collected some "System variables" over 2x periods.

Period #1: 7 days uptime
------------------------
| Select_full_join         | 1967       |
| Select_full_range_join   | 0          |
| Select_range             | 1          |
| Select_range_check       | 0          |
| Select_scan              | 47074      |
| Slow_queries             | 106        |
| Sort_merge_passes        | 0          |
| Sort_range               | 0          |
| Sort_rows                | 151760     |
| Sort_scan                | 7341       |


Period #2: 18 hours uptime after a reboot
-----------------------------------------
| Select_full_join         | 182       |
| Select_full_range_join   | 0         |
| Select_range             | 0         |
| Select_range_check       | 0         |
| Select_scan              | 4216      |
| Slow_queries             | 18        |
| Sort_merge_passes        | 0         |
| Sort_range               | 0         |
| Sort_rows                | 24016     |
| Sort_scan                | 696       |

Basically I would like to zoom into the variables: Select_full_join,
Select_scan, & Sort_scan. By reading the docs @ mysql.com, I can infer that my
queries/sorts are performing a lot of full table scans. I know that's bad. But I
want to know from experienced people if my numbers above indicate "normal" or
"excessively horrible" performance.

Thank you

Xanana
