How do you do that? When I click the icon that has the tooltip
"execution mode," it acts like it's doing something for a while,
and then it displays an execution plan. But the table is unchanged.
Then I select/copy the SQL, paste it into the Enterprise Manager and
click the exclamation point. It complains of a syntax error.
This happened before--I just forgot to mention it.
Removing the syntax error got the time out.
Maybe the timeout is because in one case (no timeout)
it first gathered part of the subquery (877 rows of 16 million)
making the second part 877 comparing to 31000. But if it
tries the other part first, it is checking the full 31000 rows
against the original 16 million.
I don't know whether that happened, but it would explain
why I did the job in less than sixty seconds by doing some
of the subqueries as separate extract and insert steps.
