How to optimize MySQL query (group and order)

Question

Hey all, I\'ve got a query in need of optimizing. It works but its a dog, performance wise.

It reads like this:

SELECT  *
FROM    (
        SELECT  *         


        

Answer 1

The problem is the subselect. SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM)

You should be using a join. What data type is your 'page' field?
