Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: CBO cost and avg_row_len
Jonathan,
As you have noted, the CBO estimates the cardinality (rows returned) from an index range scan, and then uses avg_row_len and clustering_factor and db_block_size to determine whether to do an FTS or a index scan.
The estimated rows returned from multi-table joins also use avg_row_len in determining join type (NL, hash). Received on Thu Jul 10 2003 - 22:21:36 CDT
