Will making index on table as descending to match with sql can save cpu time?
Although there is not enough information to give a definite answer, I tend to think that no, it will not change much.

Getting answers to the following questions will give you (and your DBA) a few hints about what can be done:
  • How often do you REORG this table ?
  • How often do you RUNSTATS for this table ?
  • Is the index clustered ?
  • How many rows in the table ?
  • How many rows are fetched by the query ?
  • Is the column TIME-ADD defined as a TIMESTAMP ?
  • Do you have other columns in the WHERE clause ?
  • Did you try to EXPLAIN the query ?
