The only SELECT is on MAX('timestamp'). There is really nothing to
Group BY in this query.

Hi.
In a mysql query, it is recommended that "GROUP BY" fields be indexed? Using EXPLAIN on one of my queries, I noticed no change between having indexed by GROUP BY field and not indexing it. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
In this example, should `history_field` be indexed...?
SELECT MAX(`timestamp`) AS `max_ts`
FROM `history`
WHERE `req_id` = 17 AND `history_record_id` = 35
GROUP BY `history_field`
Thanks,
