Before checking stats, execution plans and the like take a look at your query. I
presume that it is generated, otherwise you would probably say that a date belongs to
a month by using a BETWEEN the first and the thirty first rather than listing all the
31 days, would you ? Now perhaps the generator could generate a BETWEEN if you are
always interested by consecutive days?
Note that the GEO table is totally useless in the FROM clause. You return no data from
it, and it is not needed to join together two tables you return data from. If you need
it to check some data consistency, it should be in a subquery (IN or EXISTS, depending
on the volumes of data to process), but best of all the problem should have been
tackled at the root with referential integrity constraints. Even if you may have
(always those b***y generators) it should be better located in a subquery - by the
way, it might help you dispose of the UNIQUE (calling DISTINCT UNIQUE doesn't make it
better :-)).
The condition of CUR_SYS_NO should be applied to the column from MEPAI, which you will
encounter first, rather than the column from CUR, since they are equal.
Now you have to decide which of MEPAI or PRODUCTS should be the table you search
first. It depends on the selectivity of your data. Be certain that your table and
index statistics are up-to-date. If you still feel that Oracle processes it badly, try
playing on the optimizer goal (FIRST_ROWS/ALL_ROWS) and if you get a result which
satisfies you add it as a hint.
