So the sub query determines the number of policies per ACCGRPID. Do you have indexes on ACCGRP. ACCGRPID and POLICY.
ACCGRPID already? If so I can't see much scope to optimise this really (other than precalculation) as it is a necessary input to the second step.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
