Re: chronological order of data insert

As long as you don't delete rows, the .MYD file is written in chronological order as well.

When you delete rows, their places in the .MYD file might be reused for later inserts (or updates, if these enlarge the record).

MySQL also knows a couple of log files, which log the exact sequence of commands, if they are enabled.

And there are things like AUTO_INCREMENT or TIMESTAMP, which could track the sequence of inserts, if they are used in the table definition.

There might be other things which could affect the "traceability" of commands. I just mentioned, what jumped into my mind.
