Hi Sean,

there may be a bug in the analyze-function on 8.05:

use

analyze table <TABLE>estimate (or compute) statistics for all indexed columns

and then

analyze table <TABLE> estimate (or compute) statistics

If that doesn't work, what's the SGA's size? What's with the temporary tablespace?

Bye
Uli
