Jonathan (ALL),
Can you please help to define the rule for execution plan reading?
PS Or the key as always ?it?s depends??
PPS Why Oracle can?t add step execution number to each line in PLAN_TABLE,
I wonder? It will make live easer for everyone.

The statement in the performance tuning guide is wrong,
and the suggestion it makes has only ever been a rough
guideline.
This particular type of FILTER was present in (at least) 7.2,
(this specific FILTER appeared only in 9i, it doesn't
appear in 8i).
For a more traditional example of a plan where the statement
is wrong, consider a simple nested loop:
nested loop
table t1 full
table t2 by rowid
index unique t2_pk (unique)
The first action is the start of the scan of table T1,
it is NOT the rightmost action - which is the index
access into t2_pk.

This is very interesting observation that I would like to discuss.
According to the "Performance Tuning Guide", for example, the
execution order begins with the line that is the furthest indented to
the right
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/server.101/b10752/optimops.htm#73843
But this experiment (v_p1>v_p2) ) proves that real execution order can
be different. If we have LIO equal to 0, than INDEX RANGE SCAN was not
performed and FILTER was performed before RANGE SCAN, this is also
proved by sql_trace execution plan:
Rows Row Source Operation
------- ---------------------------------------------------
1 SORT AGGREGATE (cr=0 pr=0 pw=0 time=57 us)
0 FILTER (cr=0 pr=0 pw=0 time=8 us)
0 TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID OBJ#(282311) (cr=0 pr=0 pw=0 time=0
us)
0 INDEX RANGE SCAN OBJ#(282328) (cr=0 pr=0 pw=0 time=0
us)(object id 282328)
As we can see from time column to FILTER step consumed 8 us but INDEX
RANGE SCAN consumed 0 us (was not executed).
Can somebody share some thoughts about real execution path of the
statement?
