I am trying to store millions of records with address, city, state, zip, etc. I originally had one table with 17 different fields with the primary key being id. However, I soon realized after inserting almost a million, the website began to lag and was slow.
What is the best way to speed up the site? The information needs to be able to be read and changed when needed, and most importantly load fast.

4. Need to check for Hardware.
5. Need to check how loaded is your network.
6. May need to use caching from application side.
