LIKE Operator Performance

Hello,

I would like to check if there is a difference in the performance using LIKE operator without any wildcard characters and the direct comparison with €˜=€™

For example

select C.* from Sales.Customer C
inner join Sales.CustomerAddress CA on C.CustomerID = CA.CustomerID
where C.AccountNumber like 'AW00000001'


select C.* from Sales.Customer C
inner join Sales.CustomerAddress CA on C.CustomerID = CA.CustomerID
where C.AccountNumber = 'AW00000001'


I expected the direct comparison to be better performing, but the execution plan for those examples shows me the same result.

Thanks,
IT
