Performance Tuning :: Adaptive Cursor Sharing?

Dec 18, 2012

I have a table "t", with a highly skewed ID column
Cursor_sharing=force
select count(*) from t;
--79003
select count(*) from t where id=1;
--79002
select count(*) from t where id=99;
--1

I have a index on id column and since highly skewed data is there in id column therefore histogram is there

SQL> select table_name,column_name,histogram,num_buckets from user_tab_cols where table_name='T';

TABLE_NAME COLUMN_NAME HISTOGRAM NUM_BUCKETS
------------------------------ ------------------------------ --------------- ------------
T ID FREQUENCY 2

When i use literals , explain plan comes up with optimal execution plan
select * from t where id=1;
Full table scan

Select * from t where id=99;
Index range scan

But when i use bind variables,sub optimal execution plan

For id=1, it should use Full table scan but it goes for Index range scan , WHY? why ACS is not getting kicked?

alter system flush shared_pool;
set autotrace traceonly
variable n number;
exec :n=1;
select * from t where id=:n;

[code]...

Why is_bind_sensitive not "Y"?

Performance Tuning :: Adaptive Cursor Sharing VS SPM?

Nov 5, 2013

we are using Release 11.2.0.3.0 of oracle. And have cursor_sharing default setup as 'exact'.

In case of 'sql queries' using bind variable, which suffers performnace issue(unstabilized plan) due to different bind values at runtime addition with skewed columns. In these cases 'adaptive cursor sharing', will monitor major variation in selectivity/cost of multiple available plan(path of execution) and automatically switch to optimum plan during run time query execution.

my question is , considering 'up to date stats for all our database objects' what is the requirement of sql plan baseline(spm)? At which situation ,ACS(adaptive cursor sharing) won't able to stabilize the query plan, so that we have to go for baseline or SPM?

Optim-peek-user-binds - Set To TRUE In Order To Utilize Adaptive Cursor Sharing?

Jul 5, 2012

I am on 11.2.0.2 (RHEL 5.4)

For one of my OLTP table, we have skewed distribution on STATUS column and hence we created frequency histograms. NDV=7 for this column.

My question is : Do we need to have "_optim_peek_user_binds" set to TRUE in order to utilize Adaptive Cursor Sharing ?I have gone through different OTN forum and blogs and it appears that in order to generate different plans, Oracle has to Peek the value of bind variables each time. Without Peeking, how would CBO knows whether to generate new plans or not ?

For xyz reasons, optimpeek_user_binds is set to FALSE in my database and i could not find any sql_id having V$SQL.IS_BIND_AWARE='Y'.

Performance Tuning :: Cursor Sharing Setting In OLTP Environment?

Feb 22, 2011

In an OLTP environment what cursor_sharing setting is preferred?Though typically we retain the original setting for most of the parameters except memory settings etc. I have queries in the following context

No. I am not facing any issue as of now (I am not supporting any Live environment) But I want to know the desgn considerations

First of all in OLTP environment (say one I am referring) we use pl/sql variables which are obviously bind variables Only in case where plan is expected to change we use hard coded values like 'CREDIT' or 'DEBIT' etc. for acc_type column

Again there can be 2 scenario
1) we use the same query for both acc_type values
2) we use 2 different queries
IF v_parameter = 'CR'
select * from accounts where acc_type='CREDIT'...
else
select * from accounts where acc_type='DEBIT'...
end if;

Again suppose the values are skewed and we gather stats with histograms hereIs't it the setting 'cursor_sharing=similar' which will be useful in above case?as with this setting optimizer will 'think' which plan to pick depending upon the values and bind variable peeking is taken care in option 2 above with IF ELSE clause?

BTW
I have carried several tests but not getting conclusive results For example I created following table with skewed data, created index and gather stats with histogram

SQL> select object_id,count(*) from skewed_data_tab group by object_id;

OBJECT_ID COUNT(*)
---------- ----------
5 30
6 2970
7 10797
8 150000
9 300000

SQL> create index i_skewed_tab_data on skewed_data_tab(object_id);

SQL> exec dbms_stats.gather_table_stats(user,'SKEWED_DATA_TAB',cascade=>true,
method_opt=>'for all columns size 254');

Then traced with following options
1) alter session set events '10046 trace name context forever, level 12';

SQL> begin
for i_outer in(select n from ids order by tstamp)
loop
for i_inner in (select /* for exact */ object_id,object_name,object_type
from skewed_data_tab where object_id=i_outer.n)

[code]...

2) set termout off
alter session set events '10046 trace name context forever, level 12';
@/u04/scripts/exact.sql 5
cat /u04/scripts/exact.sql
select /* for exact */ object_id,object_name,object_type from skewed_data_tab where object_id=&1;

But not getting consistent results

Performance Tuning :: Cursor Embedded In Select

Jul 21, 2010

I've been examining som old queries in an existing db due to more and more problems regarding performance. The sql is used as backend for a java/jboss web application with the possibility for users to enter data. With more and more data, there starting to come complaints about the performance.

I stumbled upon a select query with an embedded cursor similar to this :

select id, name ...,
cursor(select id, sequence.... from table2),
cursor(select id, name.... from table3)
from table1
join table4 on (table1.id = table4.id)
where .....

The javacode is a prepared statement with the actual sql as a string and the content of the cursors saved in conjunction with each row.

when i use sqldeveloper to show the explain plan without the cursors, the cost is 2428
when i use sqldeveloper to show the explain plan with just 1 of the cursors, the cost is ~165000

Is there a better way to do this instead of cursors ?

Performance Tuning :: Does Parallel Hint Works In Cursor Queries

Aug 28, 2013

Does parallel hint works in cursor queries? The cursor query is something like :

cursor c is
select /*+ parallel(s,8) */
from table ref_tab s ---- >>
<where condition>;

The table ref_tab hold data for a single day at any point of time and gets truncate before loading the next days data.On average the table holds around 7 million rows and doesn't contains any index (think that's fine as all together we are loading the whole set).And, we are using bulk logic with save exceptions to open the cursor and load the data into the target table.

Performance Tuning :: Tools For Database Tuning And Instance Tuning

Jul 12, 2010

Looking to understand the difference between instance tuning and database tuning.

What is the difference between these two tuning exercises? I understand that an instance is memory based structures (logical) where as database consists of physical structures.

However, how does one tune a database the physical structure? Does it have to do with file placements/block sizes etc. Would you agree that a lot of that is taken care by ASM now in 11g? What tools are required/available (third party as well as oracle supplied) for these types of tuning scenarios?

Performance Tuning :: How Length Of Column Width Effects Index Performance

Sep 30, 2010

How the length of column width effects index performance?

For example if i had IOT table emp_iot with columns:
(id number,
job varchar2(20),
time date,
plan number)

Table key consist of(id, job, time)

Column JOB has fixed list of distinct values ('ANALYST', 'NIGHT_WORKED', etc...).

What performance increase i could expect if in column "job" i would store not names but concrete numbers identifying job names.
For e.g. i would store "1" instead 'ANALYST' and "2" instead 'NIGHT_WORKED'.

Performance Tuning :: Fragmentation Can Reduce Performance In Query Times

Jun 16, 2010

I have a question about database fragmentation.I know that fragmentation can reduce performance in query times. The blocks are distributed in many extents and scans process takes a long time. Oracle engine have to locate the address of the next extent..

I want to know if there is any system view in which you can check if your table or index has high fragmentation. If it's needed I will have to re-create, move or rebulid the table or index, but before I want to know if the degree of fragmentation is high.

Any useful script or query to do this, any interesting oracle system view?

Performance Tuning :: Procedure Performance On New Database Import?

Nov 15, 2010

Testing our 9i to 11g upgrade, we've imported the entire DB into the new machine.We've found that certain procedures are really suffering performance problems. BUT, we've also found, that if we check out a production copy of the procedure from our source code control, and reinstall it, the performance issue goes away. Just alter the procedure and recompiling does NOT work.

The new machine where the 11g database exists is slightly different than the source, but it's not like we have this problem with every procedure. It's only a couple.

any possible reason that we'd have to re-install a procedure to correct a performance problem?

Performance Tuning :: Query Performance Gain Using Statistics?

Aug 9, 2010

Somewhere I read that we should not use hints in Oracle production environments, but we can use hints in the development environment and on achieving the desired execution plan we can adjust the 'statistics' to follow that plan without hints.

Q1. If it is true what statistics do we adjust for influencing the execution plan and how?

For example, I have the following simple query:

select e.empid, e.ename, d.dname
from emp e, dept d
where e.deptno=d.deptno;

emp.empid, emp.deptno and dep.deptno columns have indexes and the tables have the standard structure as found in the basic oracle examples.

If I look at the execution plan of the above query then I see that the driving table is empand the driven table is dept.Also the type of join that is taking place is 'Nested Loop'.

Questions: With respect to the above query,
Q 2. If I want to make dept the driving table and emp the driven table then how can I adjust the statistics to achieve that?
Q 3. If I want to use hash join instead of a nested loop join then then how can I adjust the statistics to achieve that?

I can put the ordered and the use_hash hint to effect this but again I have heard that altering statistics is a more robust way to control an execution plan as compared to hints.

Performance Tuning :: DECODE In WHERE CLAUSE Performance?

Oct 17, 2011

The following query gets input parameter from the Front End application, which User queries to get Reports.There are many drop down boxes like LOB, FAMILY, BRAND etc., The user may or may not select values from drop down boxes.

If the user select any one or more values ( against each drop down box) it has to fetch all matching values from DB. If the user does'nt select any values it has to fetch all the records, in this case application will send a value 'DEFAULT' (which is not a value in DB ) so that the DB will fetch all the records.

For getting this I wrote a query like below using DECODE, which colleague suggested that will hamper performance.From the below query all the variables V_ are defined in procedure which gets the values selected by user as a comma separated string here V_SELLOB and LOB_DESC is column in DB.

DECODE (V_SELLOB, 'DEFAULT', V_SELLOB, LOB_DESC) IN
OPEN v_refcursor FOR
SELECT /*+ FULL(a) PARALLEL(a, 5) */
*
FROM items a
WHERE a.sku_status = 'A'

Performance Tuning :: Options While Using RBO?

Mar 27, 2013

I am working on an assignement where client is using Oracle 10g but stuck to using RBO Now the application team, from the GUI available to them build dynamic queries and some of them run very slow.

Neither the code can not be changed to tune the queries nor do we get the exact step in the plan which is an issue (being RBO).For some long running queries the Tuning advisor is not producing any recommendations.

Another hurdle is that all the application users are using same application user id so we can not write a logon trigger to use CBO for some particular queries to see what is happening in the background!

Performance Tuning :: SGA-MAX-SIZE To More Than 2G?

Aug 10, 2011

I am running Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 on MS Windows 2003 server 64-bit with 16G RAM.

Here is the findings for my Oracle database.

SQL> select * * from v$sgainfo;
NAME BYTES RES
-------------------------------- ---------- ---
Fixed SGA Size 1293560 No
Redo Buffers 7094272 No
Buffer Cache Size 830472192 Yes

[code]...

I find that the SGA component "Buffer Cache" is decreasing from the start "1.8G" and down to now 0.8G. On the other hand, the component "Shared Pool" is increasing from the start 0.3G to now 1.2G. I noticed that there are 100 operations of shrinking of "Buffer cache" and growth of "Shared Pool" in Oracle every day.Is it a indicator that I should raise up the SGA_MAX_SIZE?

I tried to increase the SGA_MAX_SIZE to 4G. But I cannot start the Oracle afterward.Is it a limitation of MS Windows(OS) or Oracle?I set the SGA_MAX_SIZE to 3G. This time, I can startup Oracle.What is the optimum/maximum I can set to SGA_MAX_SIZE?Is there any adverse effect/concern when setting the SGA_MAX_SIZE more than 2G?

My DB is oracle10g.

I have AWR report comparison for two different days. I want to find the below things.

1. Which day has better performance?
2. What are the top two findings on the report.

I attached the report.

Here are my answer. Please correct me if i am wrong.

1. Which day has better performance? Second day has higher load. Since redosize is showing very high.
2. What are the top two findings on the report.

a) Compared to two days, first day, little bit more I/0 wait for single block read.
b) Compared to two days, 2nd day, it takes higher CPU.

However, which day is best compared to two days?
