Can it be that Derby (in-memory) is deadlocking on this query?

[Pavel Bortnovskiy]

Hello:

while running my application, I noticed that when the following query 
(which uses a subquery with tables joining on themselves) is executed, the 
application processes 185 records and then sits indefinitely in 
ResultSet.next() method:

SELECT 
    P1.ID ,
    R1.description
    P1.BOOK
    P1.NOMINAL
    P1.NOMINAL * R1.Factor
FROM
    P_TABLE P1,
    R_TABLE R1,
    (
      select 
        R2.IN_ID
      from 
        P_TABLE P2,
        R_TABLE R2
      where 
        P2.IN_ID = R2.IN_ID AND
        P2.NOMINAL <> 0  AND
        R2.IType='X'
      GROUP BY R2.IN_ID 
      HAVING COUNT(*) >1
    ) as MULTI
WHERE
    P1.IN_ID = R1.IN_ID  AND
    MULTI.IN_ID = R1.IN_ID


Then I tried running AquaDataStudio with this query and it's been over 16 
minutes without any results back:



However, when I run the subquery itself, it executes practically 
instanteneously:



And if I replace the subquery with where R1.IN in ('P32764', 'P32765', ... 
[all results from subquery]), it executes in a few ms:



I have a suspicion that Derby (which is running in in-memory only mode) is 
deadlocking.
What can I do on my end (without exposing our data) to help you diagnose 
this.

Please respond as soon as you can, since this is quite important and 
urgent.

Thank you,
Pavel.
