Re: Interactive SQL faster than Batch SQL?

Frank,

I do not think it will help to rename the file in the query, as the SQL 
optimizer will still select its best access path, whether you tell to use that 
certain file, or whether it exists, at all. I think the SQL optimizer will 
still look at the PF, if you supply the name of the (correct) LF/index; perhaps 
another reason fort the bad performance, escpecially large PFs). 

My policy is to name the PFs in the query and let's the optimizer do its job.

It might help to create a suggested LF/index, though.

Just my thoughts.

Regards,
Carel Teijgeler.
