can you share your query.

I’m not sure if this issue is specific to version 9.x—my colleague believes it is.

However, when we perform a one-to-one LEFT JOIN and the ID is NULL, it ends up bringing in the entire table, which drastically slows down the query.

Is there anything I can do to mitigate this, short of changing the relationship?
