Re: table access slows to a crawl

If you have a MyISAM table (which is non-transactional) you may try to use the ANALYZE statement. If this doesn't help, try OPTIMIZE. This rebuilds the whole table and all indexes. This takes a long time to run, but defragments the table.

It is also possible that your growing table needs more space in the key cache than available. Try to increase its size then.
