Given two tables of equal structure, but one with 100M rows and another with 100 rows, will inserts take longer on the table with more rows?
Why?
Insert takes a longer time for 100M rows especially if one of the columns is
indexed. Because of the indexing, it will have to index the new inserted row accordingly which takes more time. The index is a good option for select statements, but if you have more inserts then it becomes a pain as it takes more time to insert.
