Roger that, what I was more joking at was to not even get the row at
all.  The fastest way to do anything is to not do it at all. ;-)

(My kids seem to have listen to me a bit too much on this point....)

Well,

You could avoid the LIO by using the result cache, but there are far
fewer latches on the result cache, so not doing the LIO might cause more
contention and therefore be more resource-intensive than doing the LIO
;)

The best LIO there is!  Other than not doing one at all.... :-)

Slightly better even than "one LIO" - with the correct configuration
(and a bit of luck, sometimes) it can be a "consistent get -
examination", which is an LIO that requires only a single latch, and
accesses the buffer while holding the latch rather than having to go
through the whole pin cycle.
