Write to a memory table first then do a hotcopy on a scheduled basis. Do you mean converting the memory table into MyISAM on a scheduled basis? (mysqlhotcopy only works on MyISAM and ISAM tables). Or is there a faster way of storing the table to disk? - Mathias We've been benchmarking a

We've been benchmarking a database that in real-life will have a huge write load (max peak load 1 inserts/second) to the same table (MyISAM). We will need about 4 indexes for that table. However, from our benchmark tests, it is clear that writing indexes takes too many resources and impede
