--------------------------------------------------------------

Per the documentation on materialization:

http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.5/tuning/ctuntransform25857.html 

I rewrote the query from:

SELECT DISTINCT INTERNAL_ID
FROM OC_CONCEPTS
WHERE
   (INTERNAL_ID IN (SELECT DISTINCT CONCEPT_ID FROM OC_CONCEPT_STRINGS WHERE 
NL_LC = 'dash'))

and transformed it into:

SELECT DISTINCT INTERNAL_ID
FROM OC_CONCEPTS, (SELECT DISTINCT CONCEPT_ID FROM OC_CONCEPT_STRINGS WHERE 
NL_LC = 'dash') X
WHERE (OC_CONCEPTS.INTERNAL_ID = X.CONCEPT_ID)

Now the query runs blindingly fast.  I also made a similar change to the bigger 
query that I want to do, and got the same dramatic speedup. I guess the real 
bug here is that the optimizer is not automatically optimizing the queries in 
such a manner. There may be a secondary issue noted by Bryan where minor 
changes in the query yields a dramatically less good optimization strategy.

> Both queries above are trivial and they are both acting on fully indexed 
> primary key columns. This query runs just fine. 
> However, when I make the small modification of searching on an indexed text 
> column in the sub query, it takes over 6 seconds to run, even though both 
> queries independently take < 1ms run.
