Re: slow queries and blob fields

I was able to speed this query up with an index. I guess it's a composite index rather than a covering index if I'm understanding fully what you're saying here. I indexed on active,news_date and suddenly ALL the slow queries on this table sped up and dropped out of my slow_query_log! wow.

Explain, explained that indeed the various queries were using this index.

I've tried various covering indexes, composite indexes on my 3rd party tables but alas they did nothing so I removed them. sigh.

thanks for the info
On to other challenges!
