Hi, why do you need to slow down query by index? If you go throught whole table and only some sub percent (REPL) is not looked for?
consider something like this VALUE=’RX’ 100 records VALUE=’YY’ 100 records VALUE=’XX’ 100 records VALUE=’AA’ 100 records VALUE=’REPL’ 100 records then this is cheaper to scan table (500 records) then use 400 indexed reads regards, Karol Bieniaszewski From: mailto:firebird-support@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, October 22, 2015 1:13 PM To: firebird-support@yahoogroups.com Subject: [firebird-support] Firebird Indexing problem Hi guys, I have a problem with indexing in FB. Heres the query select rep$log.pk, tablica_ime, client_number, time_stamp, sql_type, sql_query, usr from rep$log where usr <> 'REPL' and not exists (select rep$trans.pk from rep$trans where rep$trans.replicated_pk = rep$log.pk) Statistics show that rep$log has all non-indexed reads even though I've created an index for the usr field. What's more interesting is that if I change this line where usr <> 'REPL' and not exists to where usr = 'SYSDBA' and not exists all tha reads are indexed. So the problem is in the <> operation. How can I have indexed reads and keep the <> operation? Thank you in advance guys.
