Mallah, and others who mentioned caching the record count:
Yes, I will certainly do this. I can detect whether the query's filter has
been changed, or whether the user is merely paging through the results or
sorting* the results.
I'd love to completely eliminate the cost of the COUNT(*) query, but I guess
that I cannot have everything.
* My HTML table column headers are hyperlinks which re-execute the query,
sorting the results by the selected column. The first click does an ASC
sort; a second click does a DESC sort.
Thanks.
