Hi all !

I have a simple question about pagination for queries with big resultsets...
:o)

I have a query that retuns about 1000 rows. But i show only 10 rows per
page.
I read at many articles, to use startrow and endrow in CFOUTPUT QUERY tag to
make paginations but i dont like that way...

So i am making the same query with some new sql commands, that can return to
me, only the 10 rows per page that i want... (depending which page i am).
The original query with 1000 rows is:
SELECT field_1, field_2, field_3, field_4, field_5
  FROM my_table
WHERE field_1 = 'aaaa'
     AND field_2 = 'bbbb'
ORDER BY field_5

The new query with only 10 rows, showing the 3th page for example (from row
21 to row 30), is:
SELECT * FROM
   (SELECT query_result.*, rownum r
      FROM
   (SELECT field_1, field_2, field_3, field_4, field_5
      FROM my_table
    WHERE field_1 = 'aaaa'
         AND field_2 = 'bbbb'
ORDER BY field_5) query_result
       where (rownum) < 31 )
  where r > 20

At my ColdFusion Debug, the execution time of second query is a half of the
first query. To me, its perfect !
But my DBA MAN, sad to me, that running Trace File (from Oracle), the
attribute DISK (number of physical reads of buffers from disk) increase with
25% from the frist to the second...

So i wanna help ! :)
I am doing the right thing ? Or ColdFusion has another way to make
paginations with no all rows returned (like VB, DELPHI, or any other
language that i can use a pointer to database object, like DBGRID and read
only some rows from DB at time) ?
Note1: i cant use the MAXROWS attribute at my CFQUERY because i have many
pages and i need the start and end row...
Note2: i dont want to use cached queries because i have too many
paginations, with too many filters, with too many users and those
paginations filters are always changing.

Thanks a lot !
