He's not concerned about making it different from Metabase. He is
concerned about making it good. I am facing this same problem dealing
with the Eclipse library right now. Trying to integrated an Oracle
class into it, and putting all the row data into memory doesn't seem to
be efficient.
COUNT(*) is much more efficient, especially considering how it works.
Personally, I would like to here the pro's and con's of either side (and
not just a "This is the right way because I say so"). Would help me as
well.
