Re: [PHP-DB] Slooooow query in MySQL.

Oops, that was meant to say How many queries do you run *without* an order? Almost never - but my point was actually this sentence: The query planner takes LIMIT into account when generating a query plan, so you are very likely to get different plans (yielding different row orders) depending on what you use for LIMIT and OFFSET. -- Postgresql php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I didn't know that it needed to have an ORDER clause in it for the limit to work properly. I'll probably order by h.listdate If you don't have an ORDER BY clause then you're going to get inconsistent results. The database will never guarantee returning results in a set order unless you tell it to by specifying an order by clause. To speed up your query, make sure you have indexes on: TourScene(TSCNtourId, TSCN_MEDIAid) ProductBin(PBINid, PBIN_HALOid) home(id, listdate) realtor(realtorid) If you can't get it fast, then post the EXPLAIN output. -- Postgresql php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
