Performance Tuning :: Increasing Buffer Cache Value
Nov 30, 2012Considering the below factors, I am planning to increase the buffer cache value from 256Mb to 512Mb.
1. Buffer cache hit ratio value is around 35% even in the normal period.
2. free buffer requested value is below during peak & normal hours below.
Statistic Total per Second per Trans
--------------------------------- ------------------ -------------- ------------
free buffer requested 54,694,995 15,226.9 2,523.7
free buffer requested 23,412,674 6,501.7 2,585.9
3. most of the top 5 physical reads & logical reads queries are well tuned and some of queries are doing FTS on small tables (table count min 1500 max 35000). SO indexing option is not required for these queires. But these queries getting executed frequently.

2) In any oracle version, do we have any way to flush only the buffer Cache.
Performance Tuning :: Keep Pool In Buffer Cache
Jan 15, 2011I have some confusion about Keep Pool in Buffer Cache.
1. What is the reasoning for placing a table in the KEEP buffer pool because if it is frequently accessed, it will be around when needed (ie if it is constantly being accessed it will not age out) .
2. Would the table be still in the Default Pool if the Keep Pool is not sized and the command is being issued alter TABLE SCOTT.EMP storage (buffer_pool keep) ?
3. If the database is restarted will the table be wiped out of the Keep Pool and again be pinned to the Keep Pool ?
Performance Tuning :: Data Dictionary Cache - Dc_objects
Jul 4, 2011In order to improve the performance of our live server, I am trying to do an exhaustive comparison with our test environment which is quite quick in spite of the fact that we port the data from Live every month.
There are no obviously slow queries appearing in the the top SQLs of AWR, we have optimised such things already. Right now it is about general uplift rather than SQL based tuning.
I picked up random SQLs and I noticed a marked differences in the execution time. Typically they are 3 to 4 times and there are cases much more than that.
1. I observed that, while the explain plan of the queries are same, trace of the queries give a different picture. I have observed that the recursive calls, consistent gets and sorts(memory) are quite high on Live.
2. I have no solid reasons to say this but my instincts tell me that the recursive calls is the major contributing factor. It is sometimes 2000+ for an SQL.
3. On googling more on that, it finally made me compare the data dictionary on the AWR report of test and Live.
The dc_objects caught my eyes. In that 4 hour AWR, there were about 10 million get requests and the pct miss was ~10. For similar load, the test server had 5 million gets with 0.08 PCT miss for 4 hours.
Performance Tuning :: Oracle Buffer Versus AIX Filesystem Cache
May 7, 2011I am currently in the favorable situation in which I have excess amounts of memory available on the database server - a single node setup. The server only serves the single instance and no other processing. Database size is around 2.3tb and memory is 50gb. For the majority of processing, AIX is allocating a significant amount (anywhere from 30-40%) of the memory to the AIX file system cache (persistent pages).
I've been trying to find documentation about this, but have not had any luck yet. My guess is that it would be better to allow Oracle to cache this data - meaning increase the SGA target and max size to allow for a larger buffer cache. However, the nice thing about the AIX cache is if process memory is needed, the file system cache gives up pages. If the memory was allocated to the SGA, its pretty much locked in.
I have read several articles stating that a larger buffer cache is not always better, as a larger cache takes more management. But having both of the caches active seem to be a waste of memory, effectively storing the data twice - once in AIX persistent pages and a second time in Oracle database buffer cache.

Performance Tuning :: Demonstrate Working Of OCI Client Result Cache?
Jan 2, 2013I'm trying to demonstrate the working of the OCI client result cache. I've set some parameters,orcl> sho parameter result_cache
NAME TYPE VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
client_result_cache_lag big integer 3000
client_result_cache_size big integer 1000000
result_cache_max_result integer 5
result_cache_max_size big integer 1984K
result_cache_mode string FORCE
result_cache_remote_expiration integer 0
If I understand the docs correctly, that should be all that is needed.I've complied and run the cdemoqc and cdemoqc2 OCI demos, but I never get anything in the V$CLIENT_RESULT_CACHE_STATS or CLIENT_RESULT_CACHE_STATS$ views. This is probably because the sessions exit after running the queries.
So I've also tried repeating arbitrary queries through cdemo2, which gives a persistent session, but there is still nothing in those views and furthermore the v$result_cache_objects.scan_count for my queries keeps increasing. So I don't think think the client side cache is working.
Performance Tuning :: Relationship Between Buffer Cache And Busy Waits
Oct 3, 2010Is there any relationship b/w tuning BUFFER CACHE and BUFFER BUSY WAITS?
1) Buffer Busy Waits are happening as the User process found the same Datablock is being used by another user in the BUFFER CACHE.
2) And also happens, when the server process found the same Datablock are being used in the Datafile.
Performance Tuning :: How To Clear Cache For Testing Tuned Code
Jul 4, 2011i am testing a proc after tuning it but the problem is, it is taking a very very less time which it shouldn't. I know that it is because of the buffer cache and the shared pool. that why i need to clean the cache to retest it.
I cannot bounce the database as other schemas are part of it. so is there any way to clean the cache for that particular schema i.e bouncing any particular schema(i know that the term is not appropriate).
Performance Tuning :: Tools For Database Tuning And Instance Tuning
Jul 12, 2010Looking 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, 2010How 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, 2010I 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 :: Method Of Tuning Database - Row Reduction?
Oct 20, 2010There is a simple way to increase the performance of a query by reducing the row-size of the table it hits. I used it in the past by dividing the table into smaller parts and querying respective smaller table in each query.
what is this method called ? just forgot the method and can't recall it. what this type of row-reduction optimization is called ?

Performance Tuning :: Procedure Performance On New Database Import?
Nov 15, 2010Testing 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 :: Checking Delete Performance In Package
Apr 12, 2013I need to check the package performance and need to improve the package performance.
1. how to check the package performance(each and every statement in the package)?
2. In the package using the delete statement to delete all records and observed that delete is taking long time to delete all the records in the table(Table records 7000000). This table is like staging table.Daily need to clean the data before inserting the data into it. what can I use instead of Delete.
Performance Tuning :: Query Performance Gain Using Statistics?
Aug 9, 2010Somewhere 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 :: How To Improve The Performance Of Export Job (expdp)

Performance Tuning :: DECODE In WHERE CLAUSE Performance?
Oct 17, 2011The 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'

View 8 Replies View RelatedPerformance Tuning :: Options While Using RBO?
Mar 27, 2013I 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, 2011I 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;

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?
