My apologies, forgot I posted.

On phone, so will be brief. Will try a longer response later. (Apologies to other responses, not hitting them all.)

Basic point is that many will abstract out data to different locations and ownership lifetimes. So, congrats, you kept us at a lower complexity, but failed to realize you need to first essentially reindex all of the data for that to happen.

Now, I grant that often the problem is more in the data scattered over any number of databases. If there are reasons to keep that spread, though, hard to just sweep it aside.

And then there are those that don't accept, "send it to a solver." Really annoying how often people assume they can easily beat cplex and friends.
