Tailoring Virtual Fields for Access Paths

It is important to consider the design of your application when specifying virtual fields. Ensure that the join logicals you set up when you virtualize provide you with the data you need. This saves the operating system from having to do unnecessary Input/Output (I/O) to other files.

For more information about tailoring virtuals, see the Using Join Logicals section in the "Tailoring for Performance" chapter.
