Man, I should wait a while before I send mails, because I keep having
more to say!
Some good news here. Doing the same as above on 7.4beta2 took 29
minutes. Now, the 7.3.3 was on reiser and 7.4 on ext2, so take that as
you will. 7.4's index selectivity estimate seems much better; 7.3.3's
anticipated rows was ten times the actual; 7.4's is one half of the actual.
