Table grows much faster than others.

[Song Ken Vern-E11804]

Hi, 

I have one table which grows at a much faster rate than the rest.
It has 80 times more entries than the second largest table, which has
10k rows.

What are the steps I can take to slow down the growth?
Can I partition the table?
Will the size of the table affect the perfomance of queries?

I am running mysql 4.018 on win2k. 

Please CC replies to me as I'm not subscribed to the list.

Thanks.
