Here you have specified 3 tables, does JOB_TYPE_FIRST and JOB_TYPE_SECOND both contain all the JOBID in the third table?
Maybe i can help you if you elaborate your problem a bit more.

Hi,
I have a query which is run across 3 tables JOB_TYPE_FIRST, JOB_TYPE_SECOND and JOB_ALLOCATION_WORKLIST.
The column JOBID is referenced in JOB_ALLOCATION_WORKLIST table and primary key in both JOB_TYPE_FIRST, JOB_TYPE_SECOND tables.
There is one more column BOOK_ID which is supplied as the binding parameter to the query. The query looks like:
select count(distinct(j.JOBID)) as jobCount
from JOB_TYPE_FIRST a, JOB_TYPE_SECOND b, JOB_ALLOCATION_WORKLIST j
where (( a.JOBID = j.JOBID)
and (a.BOOK_ID = :bookId))
or ((b.JOBID = j.JOBID)
and (b.BOOK_ID = :bookId));
As the records in the database are too large it is having huge cost and stalling the server and takes lot of time.
Can anyone suggest a better way to fetch the results for the query or tune it? Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Kapil

That seems the only way to get a sane answer to this query, which is otherwise an unconstrained join on both sides of the OR. Great example of a query which runs slow because the question is phrased incorrectly. Count(distinct) is pretty much the only function that will give the same answer as a correctly phrased query. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.comPostgreSQL Training, Services and Support
