Very slow queries when connecting through the listener in Oracle 10.2.0.4

Hi,
I have a 10g database with a little table (2 columns, 9 rows).
When i connect to the db through the listener (sqlplus system/manager@SID) and run this query : select * from table, the execution time is about 500ms
When i connect to the db by setting the ORACLE_SID to SID (export ORACLE_SID=SID; sqlplus system/manager) and run the same query, it's 10x faster ...
The listener is : TNSLSNR for Solaris: Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
The database is : Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production
Any ideas ?
Thanks ... (i'm a newbie in oracle and in english ... so excuse me in advance)

I'm re-reading some docs on exactly how to "walk the clock" in reading the above. If you are interested, see if you can find a copy of "Optimizing Oracle Performance" by Cary Milsap. It goes into great detail about how to interpret these traces.
The "ela" value is the elapsed time of the wait, in micro-seconds (1 ms = 0.000 001 second). Unless I've slipped a decimal position, you have 0.52081 sec (a whisker more than one-half second) in network wait time, that doesn't exist on the bequeath connection. That is your "about 500 milliseconds".

Very slow start when initially entering the service ticket in Web UI (2007)

We seem to encounter a very slow start when initially entering the service ticket in Web UI (2007). Once in all seems speedy enough. I don't have my access arrange for the Service marketplace (OSS notes) yet so can't check if there is a known solution, which I suspect there is. Has anyone encountered this problem and possibly resolved it?.

However, I was wondering whether anyone has come across any other small changes that may have a major effect. A quick-win I guess you call it. From bitter experience I know there are rarely quick wins when it comes to optimisation due to the amount of re-testing etc.
But any further advice would be welcome.

Why does my TV only show the background image on my iMac when connected through the thunderbolt port?

I connected my iMac to my LCD TV using an HDMI cable and then an adapter to connect to the iMac's thunderbolt port. However, I can only see the wallpaper of my iMac, but not any other application that is open. Could anyone help me resolve this issue?

The TV is seen as a second monitor, you need to drag content onto it. Just click this window and drag it to the left and it should appear on the TV. If you want the TV to mirror what you see on your iMac then you have to tell got to System Preferences - Display - Arrangement tab and click Mirror Displays.

Very slow performance when scrolling through view object

Dear reader,
I've encountered the following problem (JDeveloper 9.03.2) I have a (predefined) ViewObject on top of a table, which contains ca. 3000 records.
The user is allowed to choose a record (for instance through a JUNavigationBar), as soon as 'last' record is clicked in the navigation bar, it takes minutes(!) before it is actually shown. It seems it is building up the entire ViewObject (in memory) with all the records initialized, until it finally reaches the last record. The same thing happens if I manually call:
vo.setRangeStart(3000), again it takes several minutes. The range size itself is 10. A call to vo.last() has the same effect as well.
Am I doing something wrong? And if so what? And if this is normal behavior, what can I do to improve the performance? It is impossible to work like this... Thank you for your time!
Regards Martijn

Need suggestions...
I have a jclient application that at one points does a batch download of data ~5k rows. Before I iterate through the records I call the setforwardOnly on the view object as well as its row set...
so something like
vo.getRowSet().setForwardOnly(true);
vo.setForwardOnly(true);
I only have read only access to these databases so I can't create temp tables on the database and I don't have any other database to point bc4j to to save the transaction information.
Is there a way to force it to use a file or anything else?
I don't want to turn off cacheing all together since there might be a case where user might accidently select a huge number of records to d/l.
I'm using jdev 9.0.3.2.

Very slow queries when using oracle spatial

Hi,
I am new to oracle, please help with me the problem that I am facing.
I am storing spatial regions inside the data base. The data is in very simple in form. That is each region is a small rectangle. The boundaries of rectangle touch each other but they do not overlap. Basically I am filling the 2D space with rectangles.
I use the SDO_FILTER query to find regions inside the data base that intersect with a line. The data base contains a single table. With one column of type SDO_GEOMETRY. And the table has around 25000 tuples.
The problem is that when the result of the query is large (70% of the tuples) that means there are many regions in the cache that intersect the line, the amount of time it takes is a lot more(6 times) than if I do the same without using the R Tree.
I can do it without using the R Tree because all my objects are rectangles. I store the the left bottom and the top right corner of the rectangle in the data base. And then use a simple range query.
Is this behaviour expected? should I use an R Tree index structure, or something else. I know that when the result is very large the R Tree search will have to search many sub trees to retrieve the data points. But should the performance be worse than a sequential scan?
Or will indexes only work for cases where the selectivity of the query is high?
Please reply I need help,
Thank you,
Nishant

Hi,
I am using the version of spatial that we get with Oracle9i Release 2 (9.2.0.1) or it could be
Oracle 9i release 2 (9.2.0.2).
I don't know how to check that.
Here I provide the create script, create index statement and a few sample data items that I insert into the data base.
Create Script:
create table out5d(

PID NUMBER(9),
X                          NUMBER,
Y NUMBER,
L NUMBER,
PL NUMBER,
shape                          MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY,
HEIGHT                         NUMBER,
N                          NUMBER(9),
d0 NUMBER,
d1 NUMBER,
d2 NUMBER,

CREATE INDEX out5d_rtree ON out5d(shape) INDEXTYPE IS MDSYS.SPATIAL_INDEX;
I changed the fan out to 50. Because I read in the spatial user guide that in case you are expecting a big output result you should increase the fan out to 50 or 60.

HELP PLEASE
Very worried!!

Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and
     after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears.
     Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
     Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

Verify that your computer meets the system requirements for Logic Pro X
See Logic Pro X Technical Specifications.
Test using the computer's built-in audio hardware
If you use external audio hardware, try setting Logic Pro X to use the built-in audio hardware on your computer. Choose Logic Pro X > Preferences > Audio from the main menu and click the Devices tab. Choose the built in audio hardware from the Input Device and Output Device pop-up menus. If the issue is resolved using built-in audio, refer to the manufacturer of your audio interface.
Start Logic with a different project template
Sometimes project files can become damaged, causing unexpected behavior in Logic. If you use a template, damage to the template can cause unexpected results with any project subsequently created from it. To create a completely fresh project choose File > New from Template and select Empty Project in the template selector window. Test to see if the issue is resolved in the new project.
Sometimes, issues with the data in a project can be repaired. Open an affected project and open the Project Information window with the Project Information key command. Click Reorganize Memory to attempt to repair the project. When you reorganize memory, the current project is checked for any signs of damage, structural problems, and unused blocks. If any unused blocks are found, you will be able to remove these, and repair the project. Project memory is also reorganized automatically after saving or opening a project.
Delete the user preferences
You can resolve many issues by restoring Logic Pro X back to its original settings. This will not impact your media files. To reset your Logic Pro X user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
In the Finder, choose Go to Folder from the Go menu.
Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
Press the Go button.
Remove the com.apple.logic10.plist file from the Preferences folder. Note that if you have programmed any custom key commands, this will reset them to the defaults. You may wish to export your custom key command as a preset before performing this step. See the Logic Pro X User Manual for details on how to do this. If you are having trouble with a control surface in Logic Pro X, then you may also wish to delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.
If you have upgraded from an earlier version of Logic Pro, you should also remove~/Library/Preferences/Logic/com.apple.logic.pro.
Restart the computer.
Isolate an issue by using another user account
For more information see Isolating an issue by using another user account.
Reinstall Logic Pro X
Another approach you might consider is reinstalling Logic Pro X. To do this effectively, you need to remove the application, then reinstall Logic Pro X. You don't have to remove everything that was installed with Logic Pro X. Follow the steps below to completely reinstall a fresh copy of Logic Pro X.
In the Finder, choose Applications from the Go menu.
Locate the Logic Pro X application and drag it to the trash.
Open the Mac App Store
Click the Purchases button in the Mac App Store toolbar.
Sign in to the Mac App Store using the Apple ID you first used to purchase Logic Pro X.
Look for Logic Pro X in the list of purchased applications in the App Store. If you don't see Logic Pro X in the list, make sure it's not hidden. See Mac App Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases for more information.
Click Install to download and install Logic Pro X.

wen6275,
It looks like you're actually using a camera or phone to take a photo of your monitor.
That's not what is commonly known as a "screen shot".
It looks like you're on a Mac. Hitting Command+Shift+3 places a capture of the contents of your entire monitor on your Desktop; hitting Command+Shift+4 will give you a cross-hairs cursor for you to select just the portion you want to capture.
I'm mentioning this because I fear I'm not construing your original post correctly when you type "I am working with a large files [sic], currently it has 149 layers, all of which are high resolution photographs", so I'm wondering if there's some similar use of your own idiosyncratic nomenclature in your description of your troublesome file.
Perhaps I'm just having a major senior moment myself, but I'm utterly unable to imagine such a file. Would you mind elaborating?

Error -1
Attempt to restore your iOS device two more times. If the issue is still unresolved, the device may need service.
The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I just bought the new MacBook Air a few days ago and my Internet connection is so slow. My iPhone's connection works fine when connected to the wifi but the MacBook connects for a few seconds then drops completely. What do I do?

I just bought the new MacBook Air a few days ago and my Internet connection is so slow. My iPhone's connection works fine when connected to the wifi but the MacBook connects for a few seconds then drops completely. What do I do? I tried connecting it to my phone's hotspot and it works perfectly. I'm a new Mac user so I have no idea what to do. I have Comcast xfinity cable and Internet. Thanks for the help.

My web pages aren't loading when connected to the internet through Ethernet cable?

Yesterday my web pages stopped loading on Safari. I tried loading them on google chrome and had the same problem. I then deleted all saved web site data and reset Safari but this still didn't solve the problem. Finally I restarted with safe mode, where the web pages loaded, but slowly, however when I restarted normally the web pages still weren't loading or partially loading. To test whether this was my computer or the ethernet cable I was connected to, I connected to the wifi at my university, where the web pages loaded perfectly. Plus, when connected to the ethernet cable I could Skype, use Spotify etc., it is just the web pages that are causing a problem. Any suggestions how I can fix this? Thank you!

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a few minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

After an update or installation, your MBP may take some time to index its files. Give it some time - but if you don't see any improvement, post here - you'll get an answer!

and I need to work on music not only in time but the battery after that.
I ask for help please

Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again!
