I am trying to understand something I have seen happen. I had a select
that looked like:

select f(A) from A, B, C where g(A)

Where f(A) is the select that only depends on table A;
g(A) is the where part that only depends on table A.

What I saw happen was the optimizer will waste a lot of time (seconds!)
bringing in table B and C. I was wondering why doesn't the optimizer
drop references to tables B and C since they aren't used any where?

Peace and thanks in advance
