I defined a table with two indexed text columns, a and b, of variable length.
This table contains 287195 rows.
SELECT FROM t WHERE a='my string'; works very fast. The same select made on b is very slow (2 or 3 seconds), as if no
indexexists for column b.
I'd like to know why. Note that b contains very long strings, more than 500 chars. Is there a limit in indexing?
Thanks. Stefano
