[ic] interchange and SQL DBMSes: /scan/ fetches anything?!

Depends. If you have at least one field = 'fixed string' compare
it should do that first, then do the search based on the results
of that. Should that first comparison return the entire database,
it will indeed scan each line.

Sounds like you want to "vacuum" your database as well...
