Database Design
- Few things can overcome a poorly designed database
- Normalization and speed - can't we all just get along (or...who's afraid of a join or two?)
- Column ordering for the truly worried:
- Not null, fixed-width
- Some nulls, fixed-width
- More nulls, fixed-width
- Variable-width columns
