Hmm it is not clear for me.Let we have all data.
If I make sort by S.OP ( it is INT) it take < 6 sek for sort.
I think we move all this data anly the number of comparation is by INT. I think
the number of comparation
is ~ n * ln(n).
If we sort by S.IDS_xxx we have also n*ln(n) comparations but in
varchar(string).
I don't think that it can take 50 sek.
Is it not so?

ivan.
