I may be wrong here but I was thinking that Lee was=20 daring someone to reply to the list with that parameter that was going around as a joke before. I think it was _make_sql_run_faster. Hardly a cause for removing someone from the list.

Jared,

Could you bump Lee off the list, there is no need to reply in this = manner,
especially when the other person's first language is obviously not = English.

Vera,

ORDER BY is a clause, not a transaction, but I know what you were = trying to
get across.

Unfortunately it's not that simple, there are a lot of factors that = make
queries (and transactions) run slowly. It depends on hardware, on some initialization parameters, on whether indexes exist on the tables you = are
querying, and on the order in which items are placed in your query. = That's
not the end of it, though, there are many other factors to consider. = It
takes months if not years to get to a point that you can feel confident about writing good SQL and PL/SQL code, and knowing how to configure = Oracle
database servers properly.

In many cases, however, queries run poorly because of the way they are written. Perhaps you could send me a copy of your query (not through = the
listserv given the reaction you got from Lee) and maybe I can point out = a
few things you can try to improve your query's performance.
