No it doesn't. If you are observing activity at that time, it is probably from
validating that the constraint is initially valid.
Ah ha! That's what's consuming the time! Thanks!
5. If I need the separate index on Y, should it be built before or after
the FOREIGN KEY constraint?
In some cases it may allow faster initial validation of the constraint; if I
wanted the index I would probably build it before adding the constraint.
Again, that's what I needed to know! Thanks again!
