Subject: Perfomance benefit using Min() against order by & limit 1?
Date: Tue, 30 Oct 2007 17:42:18 -0300
Message-ID: <069c01c81b35$5d2dfa10$8f01010a@iptel.com.ar> (raw)

Hi guys. Is there any difference between these two queries regarding
performance?
Table stopvoip has several million records. 
I suspect using the aggregate function would be best, but benchmarking
doesn't seem to confirm it. Both queries take around 150 - 175 ms once data
has been cached. 

Any hindsights?


SELECT min(h323setuptime::date)
FROM stopvoip 
WHERE callingstationid = '2941605118'   
AND h323setuptime >= '2007.07.01'   
AND h323disconnectcause = '10'   
AND acctsessiontime > 0   
AND NOT calledstationid ~ '^99[89]#'
