How to efficiently UPDATE a column when it requires joining 2 large tables in MySQL?

Well, I finally put this query to an 8 core box with 12 GB of ram dedicated to InnoDB and it did completed but after 7 hours!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
