• From the headline:


    Do you hate when someone wakes you up in the middle of the night and tells you that some query is slower and you need to investigate it?

    No.  I actually love it.  It means I get to kick someone's butt when I get into work because I will have already told them several times that it would be slow before they promoted it to production. 😉

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
