I have a query that takes about two minutes and returns 97 rows.
If I change the query only by adding ROWNUM to the outermost
select clause, the query never returns (I let it run overnight).
I'm not using ROWNUM in the where clause, I'm just selecting it.
I can't think of any reason that just selecting ROWNUM would make any
difference. This is Orace 8.1
I spent a day searching Google groups without finding anything on this.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Crystal ball is in the repair shop. Why not post the query, explain
plan, etc?

For reasons I don't understand, adding ROWNUM caused a different
(and worse) execution plan. After I added some hints to get a good
execution plan, my problem is solved. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hi all,
(Sorry for the cross-post, there doesn't appear to be much activity on
comp.database.oracle)I'm trying to get the last 300 rows from the difference
between 2 large
tables and my queries are taking at least 10 minutes to do this.
I'm running on quite a fast server and the tables are not very large,
3,000,000 to 30,000,000 rows.
I've tried the following:

Hello,
I'm stumbled at a serious problem, and quite frankly getting

straight to the point.
I have this Python program, that performs MySQL queries to a database.
These queries are performed at regular intervals. Basically it is
looking for fields that match certain criterias. Such fields are not
present at all time. When the program finds such field, it then takes

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
