one of the first things to look for in database performance tuning is the existence (or nonexistence) of indexes (for SELECTs, that is). they are perhaps the "#1 most used" optimization for relational databases.
if you can, i would suggest first tracking down the query text itself. sybase and oracle have mechanisms for logging full query text (oracle to a file, sybase to the sybsecurity database in sysaudits_0x tables), mysql and postgresql most likely have the same features. if not, it would be a trivial task to have query text logged to a file. next, i would determine if there are indeed indexes on the tables in the query. if there are none, try adding some. if there are some, then try adding more. :) (without getting into too much detail, try adding indexes on columns that are commonly joined on or restricted on...primary keys for tables is also nice). -Anthony.
