I'm not an expert on databases, and I haven't a notion of mailing you off-list, with information that could potentially benifit others as well, but from my understanding, deleting an index(a good index that is) would slow the db down in certain cases. Deleting a "bad index" would speed certain operations up. On 9/24/05, Gustav Wiberg <gustav@varupiraten.se> wrote:

My question: If I delete an index, what is the WORST thing that can happen? /G http://www.varupiraten.se/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
