Some questions on Storage engine

2006-08-22 Thread Ratheesh K J
Hello all,

I have a couple of questions on storage engine types wrt performance

  1.. Will there be any performance degrade when we do joins with tables 
having different storage engines ? 
  2.. Where are the temporary tables created? (by default why not memory 
storage engine?)  will it be helpful if all the temp tables are created with 
storage engine :MEMORY
Thanks,

Ratheesh Bhat K J

Depends on the type of queries I think.

There could be something here

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/storage-engines.html

or even

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/select.html

You can't store them in memory.

Despite what the doc says, I posted a working script here a couple of weeks 
ago which creates temporary tables with engine=Memory.  Either my 
specification was being ignored in favor of some default--with no error 
indication, or somebody forgot to document a new feature.


This has only been tried by me on Win XP.
