I have a table with 117000 or so records. I need to perform a search that checks 3 separate fields for a given string pattern.
My where clause is as follows:
field1 LIKE '%' + @DESC + '%'
OR field2 LIKE '%' + @DESC + '%'
OR field3 LIKE '%' + @DESC + '%'
This seems to take about 24 seconds regardless of input...
Is there a better way to do this? Less than 10 (or 5!) seconds would be much more preferable.
Thanks for any help.
