RE: Does the case of an Oracle query statement affect query perfo

[Jamadagni, Rajendra]

As long as you stick to either (a) or (b) you will be okay ... if you mix-n-match that will make Oracle do more work.

Subject: Does the case of an Oracle query statement affect query performance?

Hi,

    Pardon me for such a naive question, coz I am a novice when it comes to Oracle. This is basically got to do with how Oracle parses a query.

 

    Consider the following queries:

 

a)    SELECT column1, column2 FROM table WHERE column0 = 5;

 

b)    SELECT COLUMN1, COLUMN2 FROM TABLE WHERE COLUMN0 =5;

 

    Scenario 1: I use the naming convention a) for ALL my queries

 

    Scenario 2: I use the naming convention b) for ALL my queries

 

    Will there be any difference in the execution time of the same queries in Scenario 1 vs 2?

   

Thanx in advance,

Shantanu.
