Hi David,

You are right. If the subquery includes the same filters of the main select
(of the existing fields, sure), the times down to the floor (50 ms in the
first execution and *18* ms by cache. Superb! ):

(...) (SELECT SUM(fr13quant) AS fr13TotQtd, fr01codemp, fr02codigo,
fr13dtlanc, SUM(COALESCE( fr13quant, 0) * CAST(COALESCE( fr13preco, 0) AS
NUMERIC(18,10))) AS fr13VrTot
FROM FR13T1 *WHERE (fr01codemp = '1' and fr13dtlanc >= '01/05/2014') AND
(fr02codigo >= '0' and fr02codigo <= '9999999999') AND (fr13dtlanc <=
'31/05/2014') *GROUP BY fr01codemp, fr02codigo, fr13dtlanc ) T4 ON
T4.fr01codemp = T1.fr01codemp AND T4.fr02codigo = T1.fr02codigo AND
T4.fr13dtlanc = T1.fr13dtlanc)
(...)

Tomorrow I will try to do the same with the other slow query, reporting
here.
