Thanks a lot!
Although I wasn't clear enough in my questions I got pretty informative
answers.
Now I see, that I need faster hardware or to rethink the whole problem,

Thanks again for your answers.

Hello, All!
Resently I had to create and manage the (relatively) large table.
In the mean time it's about 8 million rows, and surely will grow above
this size.
The problem is that queries takes absolutely not acceptable time.
Database located on average Celeron 400 machine with 128 Mb of RAM and
