Hi Pavel,

Thanks for your reply.

My understanding is that Explain provides measurements of query run time but 
does not include or specifies the timing for  planning and for running 
optimization algorithms. 

Pls let me know if my understanding is not  correct. In that case, how do I 
find out how much of query time is spent to prepare the query and how much time 
is spent executing it. 

Thanks,
James
