I know, from whatever I’ve read, prepared statements are faster since pre-compiled cached version is used for recurring queries. My doubt is : Exactly where time is saved? I see, only the time taken in preparing a query could be saved. Even prepared statements have to do database search and so no time is saved there. Am I wrong?
That’s correct. The time saved by using prepared statements is generally in the database engine planning/compiling the query.
