DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

DB2 might not be able to fully optimize queries containing the 
following pattern leading to long execution times. 
Pattern conditions: 
1) The query contains one or more outer joins. 
2) The null producing side of the outer join is involved in a 
correlated predicate inside a subquery 
3) The subquery is of the form EXISTS or IN. 
4) The subquery is used in the context of a predicate with no 
complex expressions like OR, CASE, etc. 
 
eg. 
select * from t1 left join t2 on t1.c1 = t2.c1 where exists 
(select * from t3 where t2.c2 = t3.c2); 
select * from t1 left join t2 on t1.c1 = t2.c1 where t2.c2 in 
(select c2 from t3);

****************************************************************

Rewrite the query to convert the subquery into a DISTINCT inner 
join: 
 
select * from t1 left join t2 on t1.c1 = t2.c1 inner join 
(select distinct c2 from t3) on t2.c2 = t3.c2

First fixed in DB2 Version 9.7 Fix Pack 10.
