Readability over optimization is often a reasonable compromise, don't you think?
- rkagerer 4y agoSo could an optimizer be built that let's you have your cake and eat it too? CTE syntax but without the performance compromise?
- emodendroket 4y agoBased on other comments, this has been done for psql, or at least to some extent. So that's the other thing... pre-emptively writing code in a non-intuitive way for performance reasons often leads to practices sticking around long past the rationale for them even being true.
- hobs 4y agoIn my experience no, not in a production database that's doing real work.
