PostgreSQL 7.2.3 I have a function that is quite costly to run on 1000's of records... Let's call it "widget".
I have a query (SELECT name, address, city, state, zip, widget(name, address, city, state, zip) FROM eastern_usa ORDER BY state, city, zip, name LIMIT 5000) UNION ALL (SELECT name, address, city, state, zip, widget(name, address, city, state, zip) FROM western_usa ORDER BY state, city, zip, name LIMIT 5000) ORDER BY 4, 3, 5, 1 LIMIT 100 OFFSET 0; It runs "widget" on 10000 records. The damage would be negligible if it could run on the 100... Any ideas? CG __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
