Jeff,

It sounds like you may need to make some more indexes. Please
have your DBAs provide a plan for the query execution. Look
for sequential scans in particular. That may help you identify
possible index creation options. We use PostgreSQL here, but
I would suspect that many of the index creations needed for it
to be performant would be the same with Oracle.

Sadly, no. Every database really does want a different set of indexes. In particular, Oracle seems to strongly prefer single-column indexes. (And can use many of them on the same query.) The last time we saw test data with mysql and postgres, they dealt better with multi-column indexes.

Best,

Jesse
