: Hello Mike,

: Yes, I'm still running 4.1.12-3  I was hoping to speed things up by

: I'm not too mysql savy as I said before.  How do I set up the caching?
: 
: Thanks

In your /etc/my.cnf under the [mysqld] section, add these lines:

query-cache-type = 1
query-cache-size = 20M

You can adjust the cache size based on your system.

Save your changes and restart mysqld and test.

Mike
