    Slow performance to use 'UNION'

    The following query took 25 senconds to run, the first select returned 1645 records and took 406 msec, the second select returned 0 record and took 31 msec. I had tried to use the UNION ALL but the response time seems inconsistent.



    SELECT S.SUPPLIER_ID AS "SUPPLIER_ID"
    FROM COMPANY_DEFAULT_PERMISSIONS cdp, USERNAME u, SUPPLIER S
    WHERE u.username_id = 117120
    AND u.company_id = cdp.company_id
    AND U.COMPANY_ID = S.COMPANY_ID
    AND S.SUPPLIER_ID NOT IN (SELECT SUPPLIER_ID
    FROM SUPPLIER_SPM_ACL SSA
    WHERE SSA.SUPPLIER_ID = S.SUPPLIER_ID AND (SSA.username_id = 117120 OR SSA.user_group_id IN (SELECT user_group_id FROM USERNAME_GROUP_MAP WHERE username_id = 117120)))
    AND cdp.can_read = 1
    AND cdp.object_type_id = 9
    UNION
    SELECT S.SUPPLIER_ID AS "SUPPLIER_ID"
    FROM SUPPLIER_SPM_ACL SSA, USERNAME u, SUPPLIER S
    WHERE u.username_id = 117120
    AND u.username_id = SSA.username_id
    AND U.COMPANY_ID = S.COMPANY_ID
    AND S.SUPPLIER_ID = SSA.SUPPLIER_ID
    AND SSA.can_read = 1

    Thanks for your help, I am not allowed to use the 'UNION ALL' since it will return the duplicate records.
    PHP Code:

    Avoid full table scans on SUPPLIER and SUPPLIER_SPM_ACL tables.

    Use HINT if index is not used on those tables.

    Example: /*+ INDEX(S SUPPLIER_IN4) */ .

    After I added the index hint and the execution plan doesn't have any full table scan, however the query run much slower ( from 390 msec to 56 sec).

    SELECT /*+ INDEX(S SUPPLIER_PK) */ S.SUPPLIER_ID AS "SUPPLIER_ID"
    FROM COMPANY_DEFAULT_PERMISSIONS cdp, USERNAME u, SUPPLIER S
    WHERE u.username_id = 117120
    AND u.company_id = cdp.company_id
    AND U.COMPANY_ID = S.COMPANY_ID
    AND S.SUPPLIER_ID NOT IN(SELECT /*+ INDEX(SSA SUPPLIER_SPM_ACL_PK) */ SUPPLIER_ID
    FROM SUPPLIER_SPM_ACL SSA
    WHERE SSA.SUPPLIER_ID = S.SUPPLIER_ID AND
    (SSA.username_id = 117120 OR SSA.user_group_id
    IN (SELECT user_group_id FROM USERNAME_GROUP_MAP WHERE username_id = 117120)))
    AND cdp.can_read = 1
    AND cdp.object_type_id = 9

    I don't see how forcing the index with a hint would improve the performance if the CBO determined a FTS to be more efficient from the get go.

    Perhaps if you explained what each query is trying to accomplish.
    Is there any reason an OR statement in the where-clause could not
    accomplish what you need?

    Does this improve anything?
    PHP Code:
    select decode(anullbasupplier_id from 
    (SELECT s.supplier_id a
      FROM company_default_permissions cdp
    username usupplier s
     WHERE u
    .username_id 117120
       
    AND u.company_id cdp.company_id
       
    AND u.company_id s.company_id
       
    AND s.supplier_id NOT IN (
              
    SELECT supplier_id
                FROM supplier_spm_acl ssa
               WHERE ssa
    .supplier_id s.supplier_id
                 
    AND (   ssa.username_id 117120
                      
    OR ssa.user_group_id IN (
    SELECT user_group_id FROM username_group_map 
    WHERE username_id 
    117120)))
       AND 
    cdp.can_read 1
       
    AND cdp.object_type_id 9)
    full outer join
    (SELECT s.supplier_id b
      FROM supplier_spm_acl ssa
    username usupplier s
     WHERE u
    .username_id 117120
       
    AND u.username_id ssa.username_id
       
    AND u.company_id s.company_id
       
    AND s.supplier_id ssa.supplier_id
       
    AND ssa.can_read 1)

    I did try the query you suggested but it didn't help too much for the performance, but still thanks for your time and effort.

    I replaced the 'EXISTS' with 'IN' in the sub-query and the entire query run very fast.

    I had tried to use the UNION ALL but the response time seems inconsistent.
    What do you mean by that? Do you realy need UNION or would UNION ALL also be ok?
