Hello

Hi!

Assumptions: PostgreSQL 9.2.2, Win64, already run vacumm full freeze
analyze. No problems in the database. I know there are 1247 records to be
found.
Why does these queries return different results:


select count(*) from parcela
where id not in (select parcela_id from cadastroservicoparcela);

count
--------
0


select count(*) from parcela
where not exists (select 1 from cadastroservicoparcela where parcela_id =
parcela.id);

count
--------
1247


I can't figure out, I did expect that the first one returns exactly same
result!
Could null values in cadastroservicoparcela.parcela_id affect the first
query?

sure

Thanks,
