are you going from an in-memory sort to a disk sort?  

try doubling your sort_area_size (alter session set sort_area_size = XX;) and re-running

Okay,

Just going from #1 query to #2 query went from subsecond response to 6 secs. Not to mention for each sum it gets progressively worse!!!. The explain plan is exactly the same and I ran the sort query below and no rows returned.

rem truncate table plan_table;
set timing on;
rem explain plan set statement_id='RON' for select
/*+ INDEX(mv_birthstat,ndx_mvyr) */
 brth_mthr_res_newco_code County,count(*), -- sum(cert_chld_brth_year) Num1
 --sum(decode(greatest(cert_chld_brth_year,1996), least(cert_chld_brth_year,1998
), 1, 0)) / 3 Num2,
 --sum(decode(greatest(cert_chld_brth_year,1997), least(cert_chld_brth_year,1999
), 1, 0)) / 3 Num3
from mv_birthstat
where cert_chld_brth_year between '1995' and '1999'

and brth_mthr_res_state_code='10' 
and brth_mthr_age between 15 and 41 
group by brth_mthr_res_newco_code; 

/*+ INDEX(mv_birthstat,ndx_mvyr) */
 brth_mthr_res_newco_code County,
 sum(cert_chld_brth_year) Num1
 --sum(decode(greatest(cert_chld_brth_year,1996), least(cert_chld_brth_year,1998
), 1, 0)) / 3 Num2,
 --sum(decode(greatest(cert_chld_brth_year,1997), least(cert_chld_brth_year,1999
), 1, 0)) / 3 Num3
from mv_birthstat
where cert_chld_brth_year between '1995' and '1999'

and brth_mthr_res_state_code='10' 
and brth_mthr_age between 15 and 41 
group by brth_mthr_res_newco_code;

Paula,

Sorry to join this thread late, if I am rehashing just igonre.

I notice that your 'numbers' are surrounded by quotes, which will implicitly disable the index on those columns, perhaps the cause of the index hint. Are those columns text or numbers? If numbers, take out the quotes (and perhaps the hint) and rerun query.

Also, your aggregate functions will cause sorting - are you sorting to disk? See the query at the end of this to find out. If so, perhaps a larger sort_area_size and sort_area_retained_size might be in order.

Again, ignore if redundant.

Run this to look at sorting:

select t1.tablespace
, extents
, sum( t1.blocks * to_number( t3.value ) ) / 1024 /
1024 mb_used
, sum( t1.extents ) tot_extents
, t2.username
, t2.osuser
, t2.SID ||','|| t2.serial# SID_PID
, t4.spid
, t5.sql_text
, t1.segtype

from
v$sort_usage t1
,v$session t2
,v$parameter t3
,v$process t4
,v$sqlarea t5

where t1.SESSION_ADDR = t2.SADDR
and t3.name = 'db_block_size'
and (t2.PROCESS=t4.SPID or t2.paddr = t4.addr) and t2.sql_address=t5.address
and t2.status = 'ACTIVE'
group by
t1.tablespace
, t2.username
, t2.osuser
, t2.machine
, t2.schemaname
, t2.program
, t2.SID ||','|| t2.serial#
, t4.spid
, t5.sql_text
, t1.segtype
, segfile#
, extents

/

hth,

Jack
