Name some database tool from which I can check the SQL Queries which my application is running.
NOTE: I do not want to check the queries which I am executing at the SQL command prompt but queries that are being run by my application at the backend.
I am stuck with a query which is taking a lot of time to execute. Below is the pseudo code of the same:
SELECT TAB_ALIAS1.COL1,TAB_ALIAS1.COL2,TAB_ALIAS1.COL3
FROM TABLE1 TAB_ALIAS1
WHERE TAB_ALIAS1.COL4 = <INPUT PARAMETER1>
AND TRUNC(TAB_ALIAS1.ELAP_TIME) =
(
SELECT MAX(ELAP_TIME)
[code]....
We are using the below query to create a Materialized View but it has been running since 3 hours. It is an Oracle 9i database running in HP-UX.The quey is as follows,
(SELECT
/*+ use_nl(A) parallel (A,4)*/
A.ICD_CODE AS ICD_CODE,
A.ICD_DESC AS ICD_DESC,
A.PROC_GROUP as PROC_GROUP,
B.COMPL_ICD_CODE AS COMPL_ICD_CODE,
B.COMPL_GRP_TXT AS COMPL_GRP_TXT,
C.PROC_TYPE AS PROC_TYPE ,
[code]....
In search queries generally we select 10-25 columns (more can't be displayed on the screen) from 5-10 tables
Say in case of insurance related application, the search might be on policy number, policy holder's first name, policy holder's last name, region, policy type etc.
And not to many columns we are displaying on the screen, say, 4 tables have collectively 4 * 20 = 80 columns, then we are displaying say 12-15 columns with 2-3 columns have aggregates on it.
since the search criteria (e.g. first name, last name, policy number etc.) is not known till last moment it will be a generic dynamic query
Is it possible that instead we create a Materialized view with query with only joining conditions but no filter conditions and selecting only columns to be displayed on the screen and then we will refresh the materialized view (to take care of recent business transactions) and fire refined query with filter criteria on this materialized view
Select col1,col2,col3,col4,col5
From tab1,tab2,tab3,tab4
Where tab1.col1=tab2.col1
And tab2.col2=tab3.col2
And tab2.col2=tab4.col2;
Will it improve performance of the search functionality
here we have an scenario where we want to find out all the sql statements that are executed in a particular time. The sql statements are executed via our application. I tried in awr report but it shows only the sql query which has taken long time to execute. and i even tried in V$session and V$sqlarea. how to view the executed sql statements in a particular session/current session
View 3 Replies View RelatedDoes 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.
I have few queries on PGA memory management.Since these queries are based on 2-3 examples not exactly same by nature I am summarising it after my understanding for the same
As I understand many workareas can be allocated to a single sql statement and number and sizes of theses workareas is controlled internally by Oracle when Automatic Memory management (PGA_aggregate_target and workarea_size_policy=Auto are set) Since many sessions share the PGA memory, the amount of memory available to each session may vary and if less amount of memory is available for a session for sorting then TEMP tablespace is used
[1] Can we say paging happens and can be checked at this time?
[2] Is there a difference in handling memory while populating pl/sql tables?
As I have encountered ora-04030 while some our developers were populating pl/sql tables but never encountered this error for sorting, hash joins etc Though I don't remember the width of pl/sql table, I am sure the developer used 'LIMIT' clause during bulk collect and still faced the issue.
With a single session on the server, I noticed that the difference in values displayed issuing 'free' command in linux and output values from sesstat did not match at all while there wasn't any heavy OS process involved during the period. I was expecting 'used' and 'free' values displayed by free command (linux) will change and difference would be approximately equals 'before and after values of session pga memory.
[3] Isn't it expected to match?
[4] Can we say in dedicated server, at any moment of time, the SUM of 'session pga memory' represents all the memory used by Oracle SGA, at that point of time?
select sum(value)/1024/1024 "memory in MB" from v$sesstat where statistic#=20;
During one of the tests I got following output (divide value by 10 for my visibility and avoid formatting)
SQL> select a.name, to_char(b.value/10, '999,999,999') value
from v$statname a, v$mystat b
where a.statistic# = b.statistic#
and a.name like '%ga memory%'; 2 3 4
[code]...
The above query is showing above values even when the pl/sql block execution is completed 30 minutes back
[5] Do we call this as 'memory leak' where memory is not released even while some time has passed since session has done something?Of course I am not checking at OS level as mentioned in question [3] above the values won't match!
Still the output of free command for reference(After the pl/sql block executed)

[6] What could be the significance of negative values of 'session pga memory/max'?
Last We have an OLTP system and in the night we run batch processes in 2-4 sessions
Suppose I have 10 GB RAM and with PGA setting of 3.5 GB Now I want the batch process sessions to use max possible memory during nighttime and toggle the setting back in the morning
[7] With above settings (10 GB RAM and 3.5 GB PGA) how can I divide the memory among 4 sessions?
Shall I set 1) PGA_aggregate_target=0 2)Workarea_size_policy=manual 3) Sort_are_size 4) Hash_area_size
[8] What would be approx values for parameter 3 and 4? will it be straight 3.5 GB/ 4?
We have a big hierarchical query which is now running for a long time (around 6 hours. earlier it was running for 3 hours). We have to tune this query so that we run the jobs within a stipulated time frame.
The query below inserts around 42 million records in to the table WK_ACCT_WSTORE. I have attached in the text file.
We have 525 partitions and we want find out partition wise total count. finding partitionwise count in a particular table.

My question here is how to check the table has changed 10% in database?
How can i check if paging happening while running the query. As i have 4gb of PGA target but the query is taking long time in parallel and has hash join.

since the optimizer (during explain plan) assumes all bind variable to be of varchar type, while checking plan for SQL statement using bind variable of numeric and date type shall we convert (typecast) it as following?
variable n_sal number
variable dt_joining date
exec n_sal:= 1000
exec dt_joining := '12-dec-2005'
select first_name from emp_data where sal=to_number(n_sal) and joining=to_date(dt_joining);
There is a report that is generated everyday in the .csv file format that i would want to load into the database. I want to completely automate this process. I don't want to use the load function available in APEX. I use APEX 3.2 Version.
What i mean by automation is that i will create the CSV file and automatically move to a location from which APEX can access the data. I would then write a procedure to fetch the content directly from CSV file and write to the database. What i need is the location from which APEX can access data directly ?
We have a DELETE statement when coming from application is not using index but when run from Toad or SQLplus as same user uses index. Explain plan also shows using index.I did a query on v$sql below is the output of the query( I have attached the same as a txt file).

My ERP Application is responding fast while running reports or saving entries, if Oracle 10g Express Edition (XE) is installed. But in Oracle 10g Enterprise Edition or Standard Editions the same application is running very slow.
View 1 Replies View RelatedNow, I'm tired to capture one-by-part image, and realize.
I've not seen any application or utility to make this work easier to me.
What could be the reasons that some queries execute fast when executed on sqlplus on server, whereas the same queries run slower with same input values fed from application screen?
One issue I guess would be bind variable peeking while using application whereas executing from sqlplus is causing hard parsing and thus getting rid of "peeking"
If displaying the data on application screen is taking time after data has been fetched, where I can see this delay?
I understand the elapsed time under 'Fetch' in tkprof will show time taken to fetch from database and not the time taken to be displayed in the application GUI
finally how to set arraysize in jdbc to improve performance by reducing roundtrips?
I'm an application developer of an automotive company and developing a lot of database-based applications with either oracle forms or c#.Since we've moved from a 10g rac to 11g using a shared server configuration, the prevailing and overwhelming topic of addm performance analysis is "unusual network wait event" caused by virtual circuit waits. Therefore I cannot use grid control to detect bad sql as I could in 10g anymore, because all "tunable" sql is wiped out by virtual circuit wait.In top activity, I see virtual circuit wait on every type of statement (select, insert...) and pl/sql execution.
What do I have to do as an application developer to avoid virtual circuit waits? Especially in C#: we normally use auto committed dml statements and selects to fill either a datatable or generic list with a data reader. Usually we close a connection after each statement, but/and we are using connection pooling. How can such a activity cause virtual circuit waits? In Oracle Forms: Seems that we have a virtual circuit wait if we show sorted data in a block where not all records are fetched from database. It doesn't make sense to us to rewrite all blocks to always get all records due to performance reasons.
How do I have to write and execute my statements in C#, oracle forms and/or pl/sql to avoid virtual circuit wait?

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?
It seems certain queries search by the number of days to ship(number of days between the order and shipping dates). What kind of index would improve the performance of these queries?
View 2 Replies View RelatedUsing rownum in PL/SQL can significantly reduce performance and throughput of queries.
For example,
CODEselect *
from (select ...
from ...
join ... on ...
join ... on ...
left join ... on ...
where ...
group by ...)
where rownum < 500
takes much more time on a heavy loaded db than
CODEselect Y.*
from (
select X.*, rank() over(order by ...) rnk
from (select ...
from ...

I suspect it's because Oracle optimizer goals all_rows and first_rows.

I would like to know if using varchar parameter in sql queries with number column can result in performance degrade.
Ex: Procedure testa ( myparam varchar) is
begin
select col1 into var1 from table where colno = myparam;
end;
Here col no is a number column and myparam is varchar. I feel its better to change the parameter to number.
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'.
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?
There 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 ?
How many records could I have in a single table without performance degradation with Standard Edition without partitioning with cutting-edge server (8 or 12 cores, 72 GB RAM, FC 4 Gbit, etc...) and good storage?
300 Millions in only one table with 500K transactions / day is too much?
Simple database with simple schema.
How many records begin to be too many?
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?
