title: MySQL Copy table structure vs. Creating with statement
body: <p>Ok so I was wondering if there is a big difference performance and efficiency wise between creating a table in MySQL with a full Create table statement vs. Copying the structure of another table that has the same layout. I ask because there are going to be multiple, and I mean a lot, of tables being created so I wanted to see if copying would help relieve some stress on the server vs just using full statements to create them.</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: Yes I am talking about using the CREATE TABLE...LIKE... I just wanted to know if there was any performance difference</p>
