OK, some questions. First, how long does EXPLAIN take to run. It is a
significant percentage of the query time? If so, please download the
current snapshot, and try that. Should be much faster.
Second, indexes are not of a huge value in this query, because there are
no restrictions, i.e. x=3. In most cases, walking the index and then
going to the heap table takes longer than just reading the entire table
into a hash and doing the join there.
I am interested in seeing this resolved for you.
