Hi,

Probably by partitioning by RANGE and creating partitions by day.

Then simply drop the day partitions when you do not need them anymore.

Additionally, a performance fix for your 40 minute delete is quite simple - Delete in batches.

Place a LIMIT on your delete clause (eg, LIMIT 1000) and perform the deletes over a few periods (eg, once every second or so).

This lets MySQL do less between each query, and allows other clients to keep reading from your cache table between the much lighter queries :)
