Re: I divided table on two parts, but MySQL scanning full table

As an example:
mysql> SHOW SESSION STATUS LIKE 'Handler_read%';
+-----------------------+-------+
| Variable_name         | Value |
+-----------------------+-------+
| Handler_read_first    | 0     |
| Handler_read_key      | 1     |
| Handler_read_next     | 0     |
| Handler_read_prev     | 0     |
| Handler_read_rnd      | 0     |
| Handler_read_rnd_next | 0     |
+-----------------------+-------+
6 rows in set (0.20 sec)

mysql> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM us;
+----------+
| COUNT(*) |
+----------+
|     4175 |
+----------+
1 row in set (0.44 sec)

mysql> SHOW SESSION STATUS LIKE 'Handler_read%';
+-----------------------+-------+
| Variable_name         | Value |
+-----------------------+-------+
| Handler_read_first    | 1     | diff = 1
| Handler_read_key      | 3     | diff = 2
| Handler_read_next     | 4175  | diff = 4175
| Handler_read_prev     | 0     |
| Handler_read_rnd      | 0     |
| Handler_read_rnd_next | 0     |
+-----------------------+-------+
6 rows in set (0.08 sec)

I can't explain the 1 and 2. But clearly it needed to scan through 4175 items (Handler_read_next) to get the answer (COUNT(*)).
