It really depends on your table, but if you find it slower, break down
into multiple tables:
create table FeedbackForm (
ID int unsigned, Name char(50), Address char(50), FeedbackCommentID
int unsigned
);
create table FeedbackComment (
ID int unsigned, Comment blob
);
Then your searches through the FeedbackForm are good and fast, and
finding the correct Feedback Comments isn't so bad either, but not _as_
fast.
BTW, SQL ... QUERY ... bah ...
