Hi All,
Oracle 8.1.6

I have 2 tables which have been analyzed. The query takes about 30+ seconds
to run.  If I run it many times it is faster as data gets loaded into
buffer
cache. I want to optimize when that is not the case.  All the fields in the
query have a separate index created EXCEPT for
ACCRUED_AND_PAID.hold_payment_flag.

Phy_Contracts has 10,466 rows.
Accrued_and_Paid has 820,919 rows.

Here is output from explain plan

SELECT STATEMENT   Cost = 1382
  SORT AGGREGATE
    NESTED LOOPS
      TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID PHY_CONTRACTS
        INDEX RANGE SCAN PCON_CMPY_FK
      TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID ACCRUED_AND_PAID
        INDEX RANGE SCAN ADPD_PCON_FK

Any ideas what I can do to speed this query.

SELECT   COUNT(a.phy_contract_id)
FROM     accrued_and_paid a, phy_contracts b
WHERE    a.hold_payment_flag = 'Y'
AND      b.phy_contract_id   = a.phy_contract_id
AND      b.company_id        = 16
AND      b.contract_type     = 'IC';

List of single column index on PHY_CONTRACTS
INDEX_NAME                     COLUMN_NAME
------------------------------ ---------------------
PCON_CONTRACT_TYPE_IDX         CONTRACT_TYPE
PCON_CMPY_FK                   COMPANY_ID
PCON_PK                        PHY_CONTRACT_ID

List of single column index on ACCRUED_AND_PAID
INDEX_NAME                     COLUMN_NAME
------------------------------ ------------------
ADPD_PCON_FK                   PHY_CONTRACT_ID


Thanks
Rick
