any kind of reference to columns such as campaign_id or user should be done via a int that auto increments.. for example campaign_id should be self generated and people should only be able to choose the campaign name.. this way allot of database transactions will run faster.. im sure u know this already but i thought i jsut remind you guys..
i got some other index and table type suggestions for database performance.. let me know how i can contribute that exacly.. i can provide database schemes?

You should check out SVN trunk, we've added several indexes recently that help responsiveness of the database.
Please share yours as well.

what i also did it change the table type of vicidial_manager to innodb because of high volume traffic causes locks.. i did the same with vicidial_list but in order to still keep the speed efficiency ont he read i had to add this index for the hopper script to work fine
KEY `hopper_index` (`called_since_last_reset`,`status`,`list_id`,`gmt_offset_now`)

the downside of making vicidial_list innodb is that sometimes the hoper script takes a bit longer with over 100 campaigns.. so in order to prevent the script from crashing i had to add that hopper code addition in my other post.. this way in case the hopper script for some reason does take longer then a minute to run.. it will not allow itself to run more then 3 instances
i understand 100 campaign is crazy.. but some offices literally want every user to have their own campaign
