There are 1.9M rows in ts_defects and indexes on b.ts_id (primary key)
d.ts_biz_event_id and d.ts_occur_date. Both queries below return 0
rows. The 1st runs fast and the 2nd > 400x slower. The 2nd query
differs from the 1st only by the addition of "limit 1".
Why the big difference in performance?
Thanks,
Brian
