FW: varchar vs char - update statement

2006-10-30 Thread Julien Chavanton
I have a database with several tables that can have up to 100 000 rows there is ~100 updates every seconds and ~100 select query on the same table using locks. The update is always on the same field a varchar(15), I believe it will be recommended to change it to char(15) to improve performance
