How to further optimize this MySQL table for a single Query

Question

I have a InnoDB MySql Geo ID table that has ~ 1 million rows. The table structure is this:

CREATE TABLE `geoid` (
   `start_ip` int(11) NOT NULL,
   `end_ip`         


        

Answer 1

Try adding an index on end_ip. This should make the query about twice as fast in some cases.

For much better perfomance you need to use a SPATIAL index, as explained in this article.

Answer 2

Try to create index on all fields included in query. on this particular case create one index on two fields (start_ip and end_ip)
