If you want me to name US vendors selling products where the SQL is a
piece of *shit*, I have no problem in doing that.
And no, adding extra indexes is not going to work, NOR is throwing
extra hardware at the same problem.
Your 'tuning' strategy (which is actually no tuning at all, but a
*religion* you should use silver bullets as paneceas to fight
symptoms) will actually make sure the US goof balls will *never* learn
how to do it properly.
The 'throwing hardware at the problem' is also a typical US stupid
strategy, here in Europe one usually doesn't want to do that, because
Europeans know it doesn't solve anything.
