sub-select). Just make sure that you're join columns are indexed for best
performance.

Which would be faster
Select users.username,
project.projectname
From users inner join project on (users.userid = project.projectowner)
- Or -
Select (select username from users where userid = project.projectowner),
project.projectname
From project
