Yeah, fixed something like this yesterday.

Turns out the Oracle database can't count lines. But that' not really news.

This statement is in violation of the Oracle terms of service and end user agreement.

Yes. Yes, it is.

Good thing I can't sign my rights away that easily in my country.

I think I can even compare it with Postgres and tell people Postgres is faster! Well, not in every single case, but Oracle is beaten by almost every DB in almost every case.
