Emmmmm, sorry 0:)

Your comment resumes very well my essential question. I only want to
know if there is a reason for thinkink that a cascade of views can be
slower than a complex view that includes all tables. Is the planner
well tuned for working with this complex cases (cascade of views)?
Actually I am making experiments with all this stuff. Better idea
than sending a lazy question in the list.
Sorry again, and thanks for interest.
