Jo has raised a significant point that will help answer this question...
There is an index on the NRO_FACTURACION field of the table however it is
not clear from the supplied data if this field is defined as NULL or NOT
NULL. Oracle should get MAX(...) and MIN(...) from the index very quickly
so your performance indicates this is not occuring - possibly a lack of
statistics. As for the COUNT(...) query - it cannot use the index unless
the column is defined as NOT NULL.
If you are using SQL*Plus type "set autotrace on" before running the query
and look for the "Execution Plan" - does it indicate TABLE ACCESS (FULL) or
INDEX scans for each of the three queries? Post your results if you aren't
sure - we will slowly understand this problem and things like HINTS and
HISTOGRAMS are very unlikely to apply to your problem. I'd prefer to solve
the underlying problem so you don't have the same thing happen on the very
next query as well.
In terms of COUNT(*) being better than COUNT(NRO_FACTURACION) - this is not
true in your example, but could be true if the field is NULLABLE and an
index exists on a different NOT NULLABLE column since Oracle could count
that field instead.

Please respond to
oracle-l
This will not necessarily return the same result as the original query.
Depends on whether nro_facturacion can be null or not.

And is better to do a
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM SC_FACTURACION WHERE COD_IMPORTACION = '14' AND
COD_NIVEL_CALIDAD = '1'

To realize the test, we have the basic following structure (similar on
Oracle 9i and SQL Server 7.0):
· Table "SC_FACTURACION" have the following indexes:
COD_IMPORTACION
NRO_FACTURACION
COD_FACTURA_ESTIMADA
COD_FACTURA_REFACTURADA
COD_MOTIVO_ESTIMACION
COD_NIVEL_CALIDAD.
· Table "GE_HISTORICO_IMPORTACION" has 30 registers.
· Table "SC_FACTURACION" has 1,885,618 registers.
On 'SC_FACTURACION' we execute the following SQL sentences:
1. SELECT COUNT(NRO_FACTURACION) FROM SC_FACTURACION WHERE
COD_IMPORTACION = '14' AND COD_NIVEL_CALIDAD = '1'
2. SELECT MAX(NRO_FACTURACION) FROM SC_FACTURACION WHERE
COD_IMPORTACION = '14' AND COD_NIVEL_CALIDAD = '1'
3. SELECT MIN(NRO_FACTURACION) FROM SC_FACTURACION WHERE
COD_IMPORTACION = '14' AND COD_NIVEL_CALIDAD = '1'
The results are:
Sentence
Performance ORACLE 9i
Performance MS SQL Server 7.0
1
2 minutes
20 secs.
2
2 minutes
1 sec.
3
50 secs.
1 secs.
The servers are the followins features:
ORACLE 9i Server
Processor
Intel Pentium IV - 2.4 GHz
RAM Memory
512 MB
S SQL Server 7.0 Server
Processor
Intel Celeron 2.4 GHz
RAM Memory
380 MB
Please let me know, why the performance of Oracle is so low.
Thank you!

Normal? No. In order to help diagnose your situation, please post
more
details. Like your query, the sizes of your tables, etc. Have you analyzed
the tables in Oracle?

¿Is it normal that a SQL sentence: MAX or MIN, execute over 1.5 minutes on
Oracle 9i, and in 1 sec. on SQL Server 7.0 (2 millions of registers),
using
equals data structures and servers? ¿Why occur this situation?
Thank you,
