Hello list,

If I've got a trigger that calls a function each time there is a DELETE or UPDATE opration on a table in my system, and in this function I retrieve some boolean information from another table and based on this information, additional code will be ran or not in this function. Could the solely fact of calling the function and selecting the data on another table (and the trigger on each update and delete on any table) affect the overall db performance in a noticiable manner ?
