Just for anyone else following along that haven't seen the patch. The full text in question is: + Note that a complex query might perform several sort or hash + operations at the same time, with each operation generally being It's certainly not a show-stopper. I do believe the patch makes some improvements. The reason I'd prefer to see either "and" or "and/or" in place of "or" is because the text is trying to imply that many of these operations can run at the same time. I'm struggling to understand why, given that there could be many sorts and many hashes going on at once that we'd claim it could only be one *or* the other. If we have 12 sorts and 4 hashes then that's not "several sort or hash operations", it's "several sort and hash operations". Of course, it could just be sorts or just hashes, so "and/or" works fine for that. David
