If you go to the http://wcca.wicourts.gov/ web site, bring up any
case, and click the "Court Record Events" button, it will search a
table with hundreds of millions of rows.  The table is not
partitioned, but has several indexes on it which are useful for
queries such as the one that is used when you click the button.
