Post the output of

EXPLAIN SELECT id, title, ... ,postdate FROM table_name WHERE id = 1

Everything is work, the output work good. But the problem is it take a long time to open the page.

This is the same problem when i work with 1,000,000 rows. it take a long long time to open the page. Is there any explanation about this? do i need to use a cache in the query?

Post the output of EXPLAIN so that I can identify the problem. Also post the table structure preferably the out put of

SHOW CREATE TABLE table_name;
