EXISTS operator

110180Apr 10 2002
Pardon me as this is probably an FAQ.

Is "EXISTS" operator really such a terrible thing that can't be scaled performace-wise, even with proper use of indexing?

In general, is it wise to rewrite a query to use inner/outer JOIN instead of EXISTS whenever possible?

Thanks,
Matt
