I think I just cut the proverbial Gordian Knot here.

Instead of having this obscenely huge query with the 3-pronged UNION ALL in the BIRT report definition, accessing a censored view, we put it in its own VIEW definition (call it SCHEDACTV2), use an uncensored version of ACCOUNTVIEW, and we add SCHEDACTVIEW.ACCOUNT_ID to its SELECT (so it can be censored). Then, we create another VIEW definition, SCHEDACTV3, that applies the censorship function to it.

Then, the query in the BIRT report becomes SELECT * FROM SCHEDACTV3 WHERE USER# = ?

And the result of all this?

A really ugly Visual Explain, when I run it locally in iNav.

And a response time that drops from 20+ minutes to under 8 seconds, when I put it on the customer box, and run the BIRT report.
