Can't understand the point in a reverse key index at the end of the day. Yes i cna see some advantages in that the B-tree index will be more evenly balanced when indexing on a column with sequential values. But then to go and reverse the values surely this counters the whole point of indexes in that it scatters the sequential values so that 2 sequential values will end up in different branches when if they hadn't been reversed they would have been found more quickly since they would be on the same branch.

Has anyone used RKIs to their advantage?
