    The information in that book is terribly out-dated, reflecting a rather old-school approach to tuning (stemming from the days of RULE-based optimization). He definitely does not seem to have a grasp of more modern tuning techniques - at least from the SQL side of the house. All IMHO, of course.

    But that's just my opinion. I could be wrong

    How about the online doco (Tuning and concepts)

    Another good website is http://www.ixora.com.au website by Steve Adams, has links to others

    Joining for 4 tables:

    Look at index selectivity/cardinality
    Table partition/parallelism

    The golden rule is to only select the bare minimum from each i.e only what is required to give the resultant set.

    Have Fun


    Performance... Push the envelope!
