It may be worth mentioning that, IIRC, CHAR is faster due to the fixed
length. If you can make your table use a fixed length row size (ie no
variable length columns), it'll be faster. Also I could be missing
something, but I can't see the advantage in VARCHAR since space is not
really a concern these days.
