That's interesting, and useful to know, thank you. However, I'd like to think that SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table_name is going to be slightly more efficient than pulling over 10 million plus rows just to count them (and nothing else) in Perl. And having gotten word back from the company, yes the above counts as 'complex' SQL.
