16. 16 Oracle Optimiser Mode Queries are flat - no correlated sub-queries Rule based optimiser follows the links Cost based optimiser, sometimes doesnt GL nVision queries perform well under Cost Base Optimiser

17. 17 If using Oracle Rule Based Optimiser Rename PSTREESELECTnn to PSTREESELECTnn_TBL CREATE VIEW PSTREESELECTnn AS SELECT /*+ALL_ROWS*/ * FROM PSTREESELECTnn_TBL

18. 18 If using Oracle 8.x The Cost Based Optimiser in invoked by –Parallelism –Partitioning

19. 19 Non-Ledger queries Query is defined in PS/Query

20. 20 nVision Performance Options Match Indexes to Analysis Criteria Oracle: choice of optimiser non-GL queries are different
