Does MySQL require periodic reindexing for indexes on columns whose value permanently increases (while the oldest entries are expired)?
Another database suffers from the so-called "creeping index syndrome", which results in ever-growing indexes in such cases (some pages in the index can never be reused because they correspond to expired values which will never again be present in the corresponding column). -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
