Re: Explain plan changes - IN CLAUSE ( Passing direct values Vs INNER Query )

Hi Adrian,

Thanks for the reply.  And i have kept latest execution plans, for various SQL statements ( inner join, sub queries and placing values instead of sub query) . 
As suggested, tried with INNER JOIN, however result was similar to subquery. 

Is there any way we can tell the optimiser to process less number of rows based on the LIMIT value ? ( i.e. may be SQL re-write) ?
 

INNER SQL

It is doing what you told it to do which is SELECT all
process_instance_i's for user_id='317079413683604' and app_id =
'427380312000560' and then filtering further. I am going to guess that
if you run the inner query alone you will find it returns ~23496 rows.
You might have better results if you an actual join between
process_activity and process_instance. Something like below(obviously
not tested):

SELECT
     pa.process_activity_id
FROM
     process_activity pa
JOIN
     process_instance pi
ON
     pa.process_instance_id = pi.process_instance_id
WHERE
     pa.app_id = '427380312000560'
     AND
          pa.created > '1970-01-01 00:00:00'
     AND
          pi.user_id = '317079413683604'
ORDER BY
     pa.process_instance_id,
     pa.created
LIMIT 50;

The second query is not equivalent as you are not filtering on user_id
and you are filtering on only three process_instance_id's.
