Hello all,

Nelsonville & me are trying to optimize queries.
I'm concluding we should modify a little the DB :
* marc_word has "tag", "subfield" and "word" fields.
* we are querying on tag+subfield in ('200a','245f') and word like 'tower%' . Such a query CANNOT be optimised by mySQL.
* so, an index on (tag, subfield,word) is not used.
* I think we could highly optimize the search with a field called 'tagsubfield', an index on (tagsubfield,word). The search being tagsubfield in ('200a','245f') and word like 'tower%'.

Other searches (a search on "keyword", that does is done only on word, not on tag+subfield) will still be working fast, with index on (word)

Does this make sense ? Any comment ?
if yes, i'll do it (for friday).
