You did a three-way join on tables with 15 rows each. 15x15x15 is 3375. A LEFT JOIN without an ON clause is just a JOIN. Or, to view it another way, it is the same as having "ON true" on each LEFT JOIN. LEFT JOIN only differs from JOIN when the ON clause evaluates to false or NULL, in which case the right table of the LEFT JOIN pretends to be a table of a single row of all NULL values. -- D.
