Ref these two queries against a view:
-- QUERY 1, executes < 0.5 secs
SELECT *
FROM mdx_core.vw_provider AS p
WHERE provider_id IN (13083101)
-- QUERY 2, executes > 13.5 secs
SELECT *
FROM mdx_core.vw_provider AS p
WHERE provider_id IN (SELECT 13083101)
I am using the simple IN (SELECT n) to simplify the problem. I noticed the
oddity of the behaviour when I used a proper SELECT myId FROM myTable.
Plans are below. The view has an internal UNION.
Any explanation as to why this happens?
The actualt view is listed at the very bottom, if relevant.
