I'm not sure your post really contains enough information to answer your
question.

If you are having problems with slow DELETEs, could it be a problem with
a foreign key that lacks an index on the referencing (rather than
referenced) column?

What do you mean by "to register 50000" ? Do you mean "affecting 50,000
rows" ?

Just how slow do you mean? Is the problem that the UPDATE or DELETE
takes a long time, or that it slows down other queries?
