Re: Problem creating indices, autoincrement id's on HEAP engine.

Well, yes and no. It has to do with how ALTER TABLE is implemented in general. Up to the current 5.0, ALTER TABLE always does a full table copy and new index creations (exept of trivial attribute name changes or disable/enable keys). this means that you need twice the size of the table during the ALTER TABLE.

This is going to change. Work for it is in progress, but I cannot guarantee that it will be added to 5.0. It might go into 5.1.
