performance of IN clause

[Jayesh Lalwani <ja...@capitalone.com>]

Is there  a significant differrence in how a IN clause performs when
compared to a JOIN?

Let's say I have 2 tables, A and B/ B has 50million rows and A has 1 million

Will this query?
*Select * from A where join_key in (Select join_key from B)*
*perform much worse than*
* Select * from A*
*INNER join on A.join_key = B.join_key*

Will the first query always trigger a broadcast of B?

Have you run explain for each query? If you look at the physical query plan it’s most likely the same. If the inner-query/join-table is small enough it should end up as a broadcast join.
