Hi, I'm building an application which uses Innodb. It is very imperative that all data is processed as quickly as it possibly can and so the problem I have is quite a concern. My perl script executes the queries however if if make an error in the code and the script crashes half way through then the database becomes REALLY slow. Like 16 seconds to tell me that select count(*) from table has no rows when really that should take < 1 second. The only way to then fix it is to shutdown mysql..(which takes 2 minutes in this state) and then to restart. Any suggestions on the problem would be greatly appreciated.
