Jonathan,

I think you are right, it came out from 7.3. I was working on a 8.0.5 database running RBO and have to use index_ffs to force fast index scan when doing select count(*) on a big table.

Cheers,

Jos

I'm fairly sure it was available in 7.3.3, although
you may have had to use the index_ffs hint to
make it work.
