Riyas,
As we say in the states, "Bingo!"
select e.ename, d.dname
from emp e inner join dept d
using (deptno)
where d.dname = 'RESEARCH';
Execution Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
0 SELECT STATEMENT Optimizer=CHOOSE (Cost=5 Card=5
Bytes=90)
1 0 HASH JOIN (Cost=5 Card=5 Bytes=90)
2 1 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'DEPT' (Cost=2 Card=1
Bytes=11)
3 1 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'EMP' (Cost=2 Card=14
Bytes=98)
alter session set optimizer_mode = all_rows;
select e.ename, d.dname
from emp e inner join dept d
using (deptno)
where d.dname = 'RESEARCH';
Execution Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
0 SELECT STATEMENT Optimizer=ALL_ROWS (Cost=5 Card=5
Bytes=90)
1 0 HASH JOIN (Cost=5 Card=5 Bytes=90)
2 1 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'DEPT' (Cost=2 Card=1
Bytes=11)
3 1 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'EMP' (Cost=2 Card=14
Bytes=98)
alter session set optimizer_mode = first_rows;
select e.ename, d.dname
from emp e inner join dept d
using (deptno)
where d.dname = 'RESEARCH';
Execution Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
0 SELECT STATEMENT Optimizer=FIRST_ROWS (Cost=4 Card=5
Bytes=90)
1 0 NESTED LOOPS (Cost=4 Card=5 Bytes=90)
2 1 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'DEPT' (Cost=2 Card=1
Bytes=11)
3 1 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'EMP' (Cost=2 Card=5
Bytes=35)
Excellent Catch!
