Do you do this using a single DELETE FROM command ? Do you have an index on the timestamp column so it can find the appropriate rows quickly and easily ? > The first process is constantly inserting rows into the database, so the > other process cannot delete any rows. I would probably merge the processes. Have the one that does the inserting issue the DELETE FROM command. So it could do a DELETE after every INSERT. Or better still, after every 100 INSERTs or something.
