I have a one-word column with about 10000 rows. Searching for a certain word is ok but should be faster – right now I’m using
SELECT * FROM words WHERE word='hello'
This query takes 0.0004 secs to be exec.
I’ve created a FULLTEXT on the word column, but the time for the query to exec is exactly the same.
What would you do?
There is no gain in a FULLTEXT index if it’s only one world. That is used to index parts of larger texts so that they can be searched.
I assume you already have a normal index on word. You could experiment with setting the length of the index but it might not improve.
