Hi Sergei, that would be great as well and i was actually looking to emulate off switch using threshold so sure, optimizer switch seems to make more sense. I'm just looking for any way of disabling this optimization without recompiling the server if possible.

Basically for everyone not aware about the issue, this forced IN-predicate to subquery conversion is de-generating some simple queries so badly that they start to take couple of hours instead of seconds, and there is currently no way of fixing these queries nor to turn this conversion off. Thanks, Slawomir. Perhaps instead of in_predicate_conversion_thresh we'd better add an optimizer switch to disable this optimization?
