ALTER TABLE glinks_Links ADD FULLTEXT ft_Title ( Title )
Hi,

Can anyone give an idea as to how long this kind of query will take to run? Its a 5million link directory (ya, big - I know - thats why I'm having to set it up with indexing)

Code:
SHOW FULL PROCESSLIST;
Id User Host db Command Time State Info
56 dmoz localhost glinks_dmoz Query 3849 Repair with keycache ALTER TABLE glinks_Links ADD FULLTEXT ft_Title ( Title )

..but its been running for about an hour now - and still going (the CPU has calmed down now).

Will this take a few hours, days, any ideas? Just wondering if its still doing anything useful, or if I should just kill the process :P

TIA
