Just an idea, I noticed you use char(10) for esn and min, and use this as index. Are these really fixed len fields all having 10 bytes? Otherwise varchar(10) would be better, because your tables, and especially the indices will be probably much smaller. what average length do you have for min and esn? ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
