I'm trying to optimize a query that in the first example is taking too long to run. This is my existing working query: $sql = "SELECT count(*) as cnt, id FROM mYTable WHERE c1 not in (1,16,36) and c2 not in (1,16,36) and c3 not in (1,16,36) and c4 not in (1,16,36) and c5 not in (1,16,36) GROUP BY id"; Is it possible to do something like this instead (This doesn't work of course) $sql = "SELECT count(*) as cnt, id FROM myTable WHERE (c1,c2,c3,c4,c5) not in (1,16,36) GROUP BY id"; Any other suggestions are appreciated, Thanks!
