Lino Tadros and John Waters had the honor to speak at this year's annual Microsoft DevReach conference in Sofia, Bulgaria. The talks were on Linq, Silverlight and AJAX.

Inside, I'll discuss a common SQL query pattern and a simple change that can increase query performance by a factor of two or more.
