Says who? I've heard that one before, and I've seen it be false.
Some wonk replaced a 1Ghz system with 1G of RAM and a high-end SCSI
RAID 10 with a new 3ghz server with 4G of ram and a cheapo SATA-based
RAID 5, but doesn't know he was better off with the older system?
That may not apply to you, or it might. We don't know because you
didn't give us details.

Update your resume. If you're expected to performance tune this system,
but you're not allowed to enable logging and you can't get a look at
the queries, you're going to looking for new employment soon, because
you've been asked to do the impossible.

It's very difficult (if not impossible) to make sense of this output
without the query itself. It would also be nice if your mail program
didn't mangle the output, as it would save folks having to reconstruct
it.
