I am importing a table from a mysqldump file that has 35 million rows. I am doing some testing and just want a subset of this table (like 1 million rows…doesn’t matter which ones)…is there a way to do this?

    you can consider to use mysqldump, which support where, like

    mysqldump your_db your_huge_table --where "1 limit 1000000"
    

    The above will generate a dump with 1 million rows
