Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Nested Loop Semi Join
Hi Subbiah,
it might be 10x slower, but the estimated costs are all very similar: all
around 1800.
apparently, the CBO "slightly" overestimates the advantages of the semi-join
in your case :-)
by the way, I actually think the SEMI JOIN plan looks very elegant too, compared with the 8i plan -- but who cares about elegant execution plans, right?
Kind regards,
Lex.

Subject: Nested Loop Semi Join
Has anyone seen this behavior on sql's with IN subqueries go into nested loop semi join which is 10x times slower than 8174. However after hinting with /*+ ordered no_expand */ I get much better performance than 8i. Query in 8i with explain plan.
