Optimizing Mysql for large tables

Group,

I have been working with Mysql for about 5 years - mainly in LAMP shops. The
tables have been between 20-100 thousand records size. Now I have a project
where the tables are in the millions of records.

This is very new to me and I am noticing that my queries are really
slowwwwww!

What are the options that I have to speed my queries on the mysql side with
regards to the my.cnf file. I have a fair understanding of
sql optimization and I understand explain. I just want to see if
there is something that I can do with the server also.

Thanks to all.

#Joseph Norris (Perl - what else is here?/Linux/CGI/Mysql)
print @c=map chr $_+100,(6,17,15 ,16,-68,-3,10,11,16,4,1, 14,-68,12,1,14,8,
-68,4,-3,-1,7,1,14,-68,-26,11,15,1,12,4 ,-68,-22,11,14,14,5,1 5,-90);

Hi, I'm somewhat new to MySql. I've been using it for a while, but pretty much out of the box setup, and am starting to suffer heavily with my larger tables. I have a table with 5,000,000+ rows that I have to search and do joins on. Although I have an index set up for it, the joined select will still take some 400+ seconds to return, which is obviously unacceptable. This is due to enormous HD access. Perhaps someone can help me...

Hello, I have a client (customer) who asked the question : "Why would I buy and use UDB, when MySql is free?" I had to say I was stunned. I have no experience with MySql, so I was left sort of stammering and sputtering, and managed to pull out something I heard a couple of years back - that there was no real transaction safety in MySql. In flight transactions could be lost.

Hi there I've noticed some very weird things happening with my current MySQL setup on my XP Laptop, a development machine. For a while, I have been trying to get the MySQL cache to work. Despite entering the required lines to "my.ini" (the new my.cnf) through notepad AND MySQL Administrator, the cache does not work. So, today I took a peek at the 'Health' tab in MySQL Administrator.
