I use a 16-core machine with 48 gigabyte of RAM, and I have this data feed where it pumps out about 8000 elements that I need, about 8000 requests per second. mysql is struggling to handle this. the table is not in disk in MEMORY (I try to do something quickly, and the table clears every day anyway), and I was wondering if there is magic my.cnf, I could try to speed it up. he tries to do inserts, and then updates a lot, reading is very small.
that's what i have. go ahead and tell me how wrong it is.

indexes are on XXXID and EID
