Thanks so much. I wasn't quite sure how to correlate the
seemingly expensive parts of the explain with the view/query
parts. Will experiment with that...
Well, going directly to the dem.staff table below
dem.v_staff forces me to forego the actual name of the staff
entry - but the alias will need to suffice ;-)
This brings down query time from 2000ms to 7ms.
Our doctors won't complain about slow lab data retrieval
anymore ... ;-)
Thanks,
Karsten
