Deleting rows extremely slow using memory engine

OS=gentoo
server=mysql 5.

all the tables in database except for one are myisam but the largest table i converted to memory engine in the hopes of improved performance. Select shows it
as being about 50 pct faster than with MyISAM engine. However when i try to delete old data from the table it takes forever to delete a few thousand rows. I've found some reports that it's a bug in mysql but no idea on how to fix this.
EDIT: The same thing happens when i try to drop indexes on the memory table.

thanks
