Uh, 360ms seems like an awfully long time to query such a small dataset.




The point of the article wasn't how fast the query ran, nor is the hardware specified. Without that information any assessment of speed is meaningless.


I think that includes the time to transfer the data.


I sure hope not. That's usually not the way you benchmark database queries.


Then its a good thing that line in the article had nothing to do with benchmarking a database query.
