I just thought I should advertise this... usually people just complain.

        Hi Patrice,
        I have added indexes on the foreign keys in the [schema_name]
tables. Also, I "tuned" the SQL statements I was using to perform the
desired deletes. 
        Results: The one delete job that ran for over 6 hours was performed
in under 5 seconds!!! 
        These changes have dramatically increased not only the delete
process on the biochem tables but all activities I have performed.

        A sincere thanks for your help!! 


Heh heh.
