Linq2db keeps adding N to varchar in queries even if column of view is varchar slowing down a lot the execution
See original GitHub issueI’m having very slow queries cause linq2db keeps adding N in front of varchars in the generated query even if the column on witch the comparison is done is varchar and not nvarchar. Why is that? Removing the N the query is much faster.
The code used in the where clause below. I use a list of strings and contains to ensure that a column is present in those values.
where mtListOfStrings.Contains(myColumnName)
How can I avoid this behaviour?
