I think it very ironic that people continue to find better ways to find performance problems caused by poorly written code that should never have made it to the database to begin with. Nearly as ironic, I make my living by fixing that which I hate the most. Long live spaghetti code! 😛

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.
