Unless you use the explicit join syntax:
select p.* from A p join B q on (p.id = q.id) and also set join_collapse_limit= 1 The order of the joins is determined by the planner. Also explain is your friend :) ________________________________ From: Adarsh Sharma <adarsh.sha...@orkash.com> To: pgsql-performance@postgresql.org Sent: Monday, August 1, 2011 11:42 PM Subject: [PERFORM] Which Join is better Dear all, Just want to know which join is better for querying data faster.
