Now the whole thing runs a lot faster. (about 2 seconds for a 85000 rows result compared to about 11 seconds for the same result using the old query)
I just wonder why those queries aren't slow with Linux-2.4.25. Using 2.4.25, the old queries ran as fast as the new ones on 2.6.5...
I forgot to add: The new queries still take about double the time the older queries used to take with Linux-2.4.25.
