> Why do you have indexes on both LOGIN_ID *and* LOGIN_ID + COLLECT_TIME?
It is because I think that queries which use only LOGIN_ID field will
use (faster) LOGIN_IDonly index... For me, speed of insertions is not
a primary task here (robot is not confused by delays...), but select
is. So I keep both indexes.
