We have a table in mysql of 18GB which has a column "html_view" which stores HTML source data, which we are displaying on the page, but now its taking too much time to fetch html data from "html_view" column, which making the page load slow.
We want an approach which can simplify our existing structure to load the html data faster from db or from any other way.
One idea which we are planning is to store HTML data in .txt files and in db we'll just store path of the txt file and will fetch the data from that particular file by reading file. But we fear that it will make extensive read write operations n our server and may slowdown the server then.
Is there any better approach, for making this situation faster?
