You don't say anything about what the data is in the table or what queries you run against it, so there's not much here to give advice about. For the monitoring, however, you can log your queries along with timings and timestamps, and copy them into a tool like R to statistically analyze your performance over time. You will be able to predict the point at which your system will be too slow to use, if indeed the performance degradation is expontential.
Could you please share some details about this "tool like R"? Maybe some links or usage examples? TIA. -- Filip Rembiałkowski
