Teach me :)

Nota : the difficult part with a forum is not really in the table size for tuning but in the complexity of requests with lots of joins mixed with the number of simultaneous read&amp;write calls which can quickly make the server bite the dust :-/

=&gt; clever indexing, good cache and memory tuning, good storage format (to avoid pessimistic table locking and to allow quick parsing with sometimes fulltext indexes)

(and database backup while users are using the forum without making it unusable can also be a challenge)

cheers,
Ma&#226;t
