I'm nearing the end of my rope trying to figure this one out. I have
some queries run against a table that is a log of hits from a web
server. No matter how simple I've tried to make my query, MySQL sill
does not choose an index. Even use index has no effect.
My table:
CREATE TABLE
What percentage of your database contains rows where status = 200? It looks
to me like MySQL is estimating that perhaps 1/3 or more of the rows have that
status and therefore, it is faster to simply do a table scan rather than
using an index.
