Re: RE: tuning a massive delete

i explain planned it and it was much worse than not exists.

my understanding is hash_aj is faster when the table in the sub-query returns results that are significantly less than the one in the outer table.

ill try it, but i think exists is faster. we dont want to do an index scan here and my hash_area_size isnt real big.

> i have a table with 27 million records that is about 1.2 GB in size. I have a 'staging table' with 18 million records. 16 million records have a 'delete' flag. I have indexed the column in staging with a delete flag. both tables have indexed primary keys. Is the following my fastest option or would an 'IN' be faster? Im concerned because this has been running for a while and have alot of consistent gets but no 'writes' yet which tells me its still building the join. Our sort_area_size is rather small and Im not allowed to change it which tells me we are swapping to the temp tablespace.
