You have 8 billion records and 2 billion bytes of ram. So your data will not fit in cache. That means it will have to be read from disk. Let's assume each query does a single disk access. Suppose you have a very high-performance disk drive with a 5ms access time. That gives you 200 queries per second - 1/10th of what you want. 200 queries per second is your speed-of-light. No software will allow you to go faster. You'll have to get better hardware. -- D. Richard Hipp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
