The estimated cost had the sort at a few seconds, but the actual times
show it is taking 50% of the total query time.
The big problem is he's sorting by a varchar() which isn't overly quick
no matter what locale. Integers are nice and quick (s.OP is an int,
which shows this).
If IDS_NUM is a number, he could try casting it to an int8, but without
data examples I couldn't say.
