Chase it with a big stick
Nah just kidding
Provide some more detail like version and what you are trying to actually
do and you are going to get a better answer.
As I always understood it, to get the best performance all other things
being correct with the system is that you have to make your query use
indexes. Avoid the commands that cause full table scans and determine the
best structure. for example to find all the customers with the surname
Simple in the states of Utah, Texas and Kansas make your query work so that
it firstly pulls the smallest data set and searches that data set.
This concept would only apply if you data had a many more clients from
those three states than clients named Simple.
I would find all the Simples and then check there state rather then the
other way around
