Jeff,

Have you Explained your SQL via iNavigator? That's usually a good place to start when performance testing your SQL. I would not be surprised to see your SQL doing full table scans and many times and/or multiple unnecessary scans. I would also not be surprised to see your SQL using the old optimizer instead of the new one. This is what I've found many times with folk's SQL. If you did use EXPLAIN, what did it show?
