<excerpt>Hi,


Suppose I have a table with 4 fields (f1, f2, f3, f4)

I define 2 unique indexes u1 (f1, f2, f3) and u2 (f1, f2, f4)


I have 3 records

A, B, C, D (this will be inserted)

A, B, C, E (this will pass u2, but not u1, thus  not inserted)

A, B, F, D (this will pass u1, but not u2, thus not inserted)


Now, for performance ...


I have tables like this with 500.000 records where there's a new
upload of approx. 20.000 records.

It is only now that we say index u2 to be necessary.  So, until now, I
did something like insert into ... select f1, f2, f2, max(f4) group by
f1, f2, f3

That is ok ... and also logically ok because of the data definition


I cannot do this with 2 group by's.  I tried this on paper and I'm not
succeeding.


So, I must use a function that will check against u1 and u2, and then
insert if it is ok.

I know that such a function is way slower that my insert query.


So, my question ...

How can I keep the same performance, but also with the new index in
mind ???
