I understand the difference in versioning and locking between the 2 products. Unfortunately I do not have time to read the book right now. This requirement is more urgent and I was hoping to get some ideas from someone who maybe has already read the book - I will get around to it later.

So, if anyone with more knowledge than me on the subject (the reason I am posting here in the first place) can help by suggesting why the same SQL against the same data in a table with the same column definitions and virtually the same indexes performs so differently in the 2 RDBMS or can even just tell me why it performs so badly in Oracle, I would very much appreciate it!
