Description:

I am reading 14.1.1 and at the very end (just before 14.1.2) I see:

"which shows that the planner thinks that sorting onek by index-scanning is
about 12% more expensive than sequential-scan-and-sort."

I feel that 12% is incorrect, but I'm not quite sure. The costs are 268.19
and 292.65, and that's about 9% more expensive?

I'm not entirely sure though; just reading up on explain plans :)

With kind regards,
Jurrie
