Re: Fixing Performance issue with less selective columns

Hi Lok,

> SUBSTR(:B8,0*.50*)
Looks like this query should be analyzed and tested better. You haven't provided histograms and bind values statistics, so not enough info to analyze it properly.
For now it looks like "I.WOF_DATE IS NULL" is one of the most selective predicates - it gives only 83154 nulls.
In addition to histogram statistics(dba_tab_histograms) and most often binds values, I would like also to see what does return this query: select
  NVL(I.MA_FLG, 'N'),NVL(I.D_UNMTCH, 'N'),I.DC_CODE,count(*) FROM PP_IN_TAB I
group by NVL(I.MA_FLG, 'N'),NVL(I.D_UNMTCH, 'N'),I.DC_CODE;
