How do you know an index scan would be faster? Did you get the query to use
an index? What hint? Do you have the tracing stats for
both with and without an index?
First, you dont have a where clause filter on an indexed column?
If all the columns in the select were indexed, maybe u could have possibly
used a Fast Full Index Scan hint?

Please respond to

Anyone have any problems with the CBO not using
a index when you know it is faster by forcing a
hint ?
I have set the following ...
Solaris
Oracle Version 8.1.7.4
block size = 8
DB_FILE_MULTIBLOCK_READ_COUNT = 8
mode = Choose
also using Tim Gormans 90 and 50 values for the other optimizer parms.
Select col1, col2, col3, blah1, blah2 from table order by col1, col2, col3;
Concatenate index on col1, col2, col3.
