An interactive concept flow for find the data access that dominates query cost, from its assumptions through the main operation and boundary checks.
trace / request.md
readyDatabase performance depends on how many rows and pages a query touches, how much data moves between operators, and whether the working set fits in memory. An index can reduce search work, but the full execution plan and actual workload determine whether that reduction matters.
Use the stages in order to explain find the data access that dominates query cost. Each stage makes one assumption visible: what the operation promises, what representation it uses, how state changes, which boundary can invalidate a shortcut, and what evidence confirms the result.
For a worked explanation, continue to the topic article and execution trace.
