The problem isn't that DISTINCT is causing a performance degradation with parameters, it's that the rest of the query isn't being optimized away in the parameterized query because the optimizer won't just optimize away all of the joins using 1=@IS_ADMINISTRATOR like it will with just 1=1. It won't optimize the joins away without distinct because it needs to return duplicates based on the result of the joins.
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.
