10g query running faster with RBO than CBO

I am running a query in Oracle 10g that is taking 1minute 15 seconds to run using the CBO. All the tables and indexes in the query are fully analyzed. However if i add a /*+ Rule */ hint to the query and force the optimizer to RBO it runs in 5 seconds.
Anyone any ideas why this would occur? it's contrary to everything Oracle says about CBO and problematic as RBO is no longer supported in 10g
Any help / advice greatfully appreciated
Thanks

  • Does SQL Query run faster with/without Conditions....

    Hi All, forgive my novice question.
    Was just wondering" In general if we run a SQL query on a single table; does my query run faster if there are multiple where conditions? or without. What happens if the conditions increase? My table is a big one with 5 million rows and some bitmap indexes defined on it.
    Thanks,
    Kon

    I think it's difficult to give general rule because there are too much dependencies on the fact that the columns are indexed or not, on the way tables and indexes statistics are computed or not, on the possible session or instance parameters that the optimizer may use, on the Oracle version, etc.

  • Strange problem... Query runs faster, but report runs slow...

    Hi Gurus,
    We are using Report 10g on 10g Application server and solaris. we created a report on a table which has 10,000 rows. The report has 25 columns. when we run this query in Toad it took 12 sec for fetching all these 10,000 rows
    But when we run the report with Destype = 'FILE' and Desformat = 'DELIMITEDDDATA', it is taking 5 to 8 minutes
    to open in excel ( we concatenated mimetype=vnd-msexcel at the end of the url if the Destype=FILE). We removed the layout in the report as it is taking 10 to 15 mins to run to Screen with Desformat=HTML/PDF(formating pages taking more time). We are wondering why DELIMITEDDATA format is taking long time as it runs only query.
    Does RWSERVLET take more time of writing the data to the Physical file in the cache dir? Our cache size is 1 GB. we have 2 report servers clustered. Tracing is off.
    Please advise me if there are any report server settings to boost the performance.
    Thanks alot,
    Ram.

  • What are the ways to make Query run fast?

    Hi Experts,
    When a query runs slow, we generally go for creating an aggregate. My doubt is - what other things can be done to make a query run faster before creating an aggregate? What is the thumb rule to be carried out for creating an aggregate?
    Regards,
    Shreeem

    Hi Shreem,
    If you keep Query simple not complicate it with runtime calculations , it would be smooth. However as per business requirements we will have to go for it anyways mostly.
    regarding aggregates:
    Please do not use the standard proposal , it will give you hundreds based on std. rules , which consumes lots of space and adds up to load times. If you have users already using the Query and you are planning to tune it  then go for the statistics tables:
    1.RSDDSTAT_OLAP    find the query with long runtimes  get the Stepuid
    2. RSDDSTAT_DM
    3. RSDDSTATAGGRDEF  - use the stepuid above to see which aggregate is necessary for which cube.
    Another way to check ; check the users as in 1 to find the highest runtime users and find the last used bookmarks by user thru RSZWBOOKMARK for this query and check if the time matches and create the aggregates as in 3 above.
    You can also Use Transaction RSRT > execute & debug  (display stats ) - to create generic aggregates to support navigations for New queries and later refine as above.
    Hope it helps .

  • Any settings that can be adjusted to make everything run faster with Mountain Lion

    Hello,
    Does anyone know of any settings or adjustments that can be tweeked to make my machine run faster with Mountain Lion?
    Thanks, Jason

    yes you can do it yourself - it's actually a simple upgrade - i use a ssd in my macbook and have the RAM maxed out to 16GB.
    as for what brands should you consider, here are some good ones.
    Sandisk Extreme - Currently the fastest one out there.
    Kingston HyperX - Second fastest - this is what I have in my 13 Inch Late 2011.
    Samsung 830 series - Fast and uses less battery power - this is what's installed in the Macbook Retina.
    Crucial M4 - Also a fast SSD - I have the 512GB installed in my 15 inch Late 2011.
    If you decide to install one of these ssd in your Macbook - let me know if you need a step by step on how to clone your drive.
    Good luck..

  • Query runs faster when there is no statistics

    Hi Gurus
    I have a Oracle 10.2.0.1 instance and I'm seeing the following weird behavior, I appreciate any pointers or references to resolve this problem.
    Thank you very much.
    1. Run the below mentioned query for 10 times continuously from sqlplus. Elapsed time is around 115 seconds (around 2
    min) for each execution. Elapsed time is constant, no increase or decrease. Tables involved in the query have statistics with 100% sampling.
    2. delete the statistics on 2 tables involved in query. Flush the shared_pool
    (alter system flush shared_pool).
    3. Run the query for 10 times. Elapsed time is less than 2 seconds for each execution. Elapsed time is constant, no
    increase or decrease.
    The Query: (it is a generated query, no option for modifying it).
    select count(distinct itm1.itm_id) FROM ita ita1, ita ita2, itm itm1, itm itm2, itm itm3
    where itm1.itm_container_id = 2812
    and itm1.itm_version_id <= 999999999
    and itm1.itm_next_version_id >= 999999999
    and itm2.itm_primary_key = 'RAYBESTOS'
    and itm3.itm_primary_key = '1'
    and ita1.ita_node_id = 3111
    and itm2.itm_container_id = 2020
    and ita1.ita_item_id = itm1.itm_id
    and ita1.ita_version_id <= 999999999
    and ita1.ita_next_version_id >= 999999999
    and itm2.itm_id = ita1.ita_value_numeric
    and itm2.itm_version_id <= 999999999
    and itm2.itm_next_version_id >= 999999999
    and ita2.ita_node_id = 3118
    and itm3.itm_container_id = 2025
    and ita2.ita_item_id = itm1.itm_id
    and ita2.ita_version_id <= 999999999
    and ita2.ita_next_version_id >= 999999999
    and itm3.itm_id = ita2.ita_value_numeric
    and itm3.itm_version_id <= 999999999
    and itm3.itm_next_version_id >= 999999999;
    Query uses dynamic sampling when there is no statistics.
    tkprof report shows there is a small difference in execution plan between 2 cases. When there is no statistics, there is table access by index rowid. It may be the reason for faster response time.

    Hi Jonathan,
    Thanks again for your response. Yes, you are correct. Most of the rows have all 9s, and a small percentage have something else - and there are only a small number of distinct values.
    Here is the histogram info when there is statistics (some old data have been trimmed for this test).

    Please advice how we can get faster runs for this query.
    Note: We have already checked all other possibilities, like network, application, web services, etc, and they look normal.
    Thanks,
    Suddhasatwa

    If the hints are there only for the "cost", then I'm sorry to say, but they are useless. Did you say that was not efficient to the Oracle Support ?
    I asked earlier if that query already ran in a reasonnable time, is it the case, or always took that time ? Is it a change of behaviour after a db upgrade ?
    Have you tried to work with AWR snapshots with a short gap in between ? I mean between the AWR snapshots (every 15 minutes or so), not between the runs of the query.
    If there's no values for the bind variables, I assume this is what you mean when you said "no prompts", then Oracle can go much faster because of the few (or no?) data repartition to retrieve.
    However, when given values to some (all?) of the bind variables, then all the problem will be on the data repartition. That's why I was asking how you gathered statistics on the involved objects, in other words, the histograms may be wrong somehow.
    There's a lot of litterature on this, have a look to the Jonathan Lewis blog for more information.
    Anyway, I think there's not enough information here and does not look easy to work on it in that state from the other side of the network.

  • Will an iBook G3 run fast with OS9?

    I have a 700mhz iBook G3 with OSX Tiger and maxed out RAM. It runs okay with OSX, but it's slow and the 20gb hard drive runs fairly hot at 50-54 degrees celsius. I was wondering about whether it would run much faster and cooler if I did a clean install of OS9 on it, updating it to 9.2.2. I know a lot of software wouldn't run anymore on it, but the downgrade would be worth it if it would run a LOT faster and be capable of video editing with old versions of Final Cut or Premiere. Would the old versions of Photoshop, internet browsers, etc... be able to create and read decently modern file formats?
    Would this work? How much faster would it run? What do you think about this idea?
    Please let me know. Thanks.

    Do you have the original system CDs that came with the iBook?
    I wouldn't advise trying to run Mac OS 9 if you want to use the iBook on the internet. The browsers that are available for OS 9 are not nearly as up to speed as those available for Mac OS X.
    The iBook is about seven years old, so it is not going to be a speedy computer, no matter what you do. Probably the best upgrade you could make is a new, faster, larger hard drive, but it may not be worth the time, trouble, or expense.

  • Making Siebel Run Fast with Oracle CBO – New PPS Recommendation - optimizer

    Hi All,
    I have some good news if you are upgrading to Oracle CBO. This is a big new find that we discovered a few weeks back.
    There is a certain class of queries that run very slow with the default Siebel recommended settings. Please keep in mind that in order to properly do explain plans in 10G with Siebel SQL you need to issue the following alter session statements. Also if you are using TOAD you have to uncheck the run queries in parallel since if that option is checked a new session will be launched and your options won’t be set.
    ALTER SESSION SET OPTIMIZER_MODE = FIRST_ROWS_10 ;
    ALTER SESSION SET "_OPTIMIZER_SORTMERGE_JOIN_ENABLED" = FALSE ;
    ALTER SESSION SET "_OPTIMIZER_JOIN_SEL_SANITY_CHECK" = TRUE;
    ALTER SESSION SET "_HASH_JOIN_ENABLED" = FALSE;
    The key new find is that the Oracle recommendation of setting optimizer_index_cost_adj = 1 is wrong! Our new recommendation is to set this parameter to 10.
    Here are some more details. This is not a silver bullet for all your Oracle performance tuning issues. Remember it is best to tune specific things that are slow from an end users perspective. In fact that is how we discovered this issue and its solution.
    There is one specific class of queries that this setting will fix. You can issue alter session statements to see the difference in your explain plans. Here is how you will know the query:
    •     Where clause on an intersection table and index that exists that would find just one row. This is the index we want Oracle to use.
    •     Order by on BC base table and another index exists that would satisfy the order by. We don’t want to use this index since millions of rows would be accessed.
    •     Explain plan shows the index for the order by is used instead of the index for the where clause that would have found a single row.
    Here is the actual statement we encountered that lead to our discovery.
    WHERE
    T8.PR_HELD_POSTN_ID = T2.PAR_ROW_ID (+) AND
    T2.BU_ID = T5.ROW_ID (+) AND
    T7.ROW_ID = T4.PAR_ROW_ID AND
    T7.ROW_ID = T8.PAR_ROW_ID AND
    T7.ROW_ID = T3.PAR_ROW_ID AND
    T7.ROW_ID = T6.PAR_ROW_ID (+) AND
    T8.PR_RESP_ID = T1.ROW_ID (+) AND
    (T8.EMP_FLG = 'Y') AND
    (T3.LOGIN = 'UATUSER')
    ORDER BY
    T8.LAST_NAME, T8.FST_NAME
    In addition at OOW this week we heard that an Oracle RAC expert presented Siebel on RAC and recommended setting this parameter back to its default of 100. We also talked with a very senior DBA colleague who made the same discovery over a year ago and is running with is parameter set to 25.
    I can tell you that for us any setting from 1-9 gave the bad access path. 10 fixes the issue.
    This find is so important that we wanted to get this out to the Siebel community ASAP.

    Hi All,
    I know it is bad to reply to your own posts but this one is too good. Here is another example of this that all of us have.
    With oica = 1 the m1 index is used and this runs a long time. With oica = 10 m6 is used and that clearly is the index Oracle wants to use since it matches the where clause exactly.
    This is from the basic select we all run as part of Server Tables Clean Up. I am even including the alter session statements so you can see the drastic improvement yourself.
    ALTER SESSION SET optimizer_mode = FIRST_ROWS_10;
    ALTER SESSION SET "_OPTIMIZER_SORTMERGE_JOIN_ENABLED" = FALSE;
    ALTER SESSION SET "_OPTIMIZER_JOIN_SEL_SANITY_CHECK" = TRUE;
    ALTER SESSION SET HASH_JOIN_ENABLED = FALSE;          -- "_HASH_JOIN_ENABLED" in 10G
    ALTER SESSION SET OPTIMIZER_INDEX_COST_ADJ = 1; -- then change this to 10 and run EP again.     
    SELECT
    T1.CONFLICT_ID,
    T1.LAST_UPD,
    T1.CREATED,
    T1.LAST_UPD_BY,
    T1.CREATED_BY,

  • Query runs fast in DB but slow in OBIEE

    Hello guys
    I am running some reports on the dashboard, which takes forever to come up. I capture the generated SQL and ran it in Toad, it would take only less than 2 mins to return the data.
    What area of OBIEE configuration should I check to see what's happening?
    Much thanks

    Thanks.. Let me show you the query I am executing:
    select T1011554.PECODE as c1,
    T1011581.DATE as c2,
    T1011581.DAYOFWEEK as c3
    from
    RD_TOT.TRANSACTIONTYPE T1011554 /*Transaction */ ,
    RD_TOT.V_FACTS_SNAPSHOT_12 T1011580 /* Facts */ ,
    RD_TOT.DATES T1011581 /* Date */
    where ( T1011554.TRANSACTIONTYPEID = T1011580.TRANSACTIONTYPEID and T1011554.TRANSACTIONTYPECODE = '2' and T1011581.DAYOFWEEK = 'Monday' and T1011580.DOCUMENTCOMPANY = T1011581.COMPANYNUMBER and T1011580.SNAPSHOTDATE = T1011581.DATES and T1011581.DATES < TO_DATE('2009-10-28' , 'YYYY-MM-DD') )
    When I run this query in Toad, it takes less than 30s to return, but from OBIEE, it's taking forever.. I am using Oracle 10g as DB... I am sure there are a lot of rows being fetched, because using the result I am getting in toad, if I do a record count, that process will take forever again..
    There might be some configuration setup I need to do in OBIEE or config file. This is just my feelings, but I'd like to hear any of your thoughts and suggestions..
    Much appreciated!
    Thanks

  • BEX WAD 7.0:  Chart Takes Long Time to Display in Portal - Query runs FAST

    I have a BEx WAD 7.0 template which contains 3 column charts (each with it's own seperate DataProvider/Query).  When the page loads...two of the charts show up right away, but one of them takes almost a minute to display on the screen (I thought it was missing at first).
    I ran all three queries in the BEx Query Analyzer (including the one for the chart that takes forever to load) and they all complete within 3 seconds of hitting "Execute."  So I don't believe it is the query causing this issue.
    The chart that doesn't show up right away does have more data to display than the other two...but I have queries/charts on other web templates that contain 3-times the data of this one and show up fine when executed in the portal.
    Anyone else having this issue or have an idea on how I can optimize the WAD charts and/or find out what is causing this issue?  Again...the query that fuels this chart completes its execution in about 3-4 seconds.
    Thank you for your time and of course points will be assigned accordingly.
    Kevin

    Hi,
    have you already checked how much time the IGS consumes when creating the charts?
    Run TA SIGS and check the statistics values.

  • Interesting Performance problem..Query runs fast in TOAD and Reports 6i..

    Hi All,
    I have a query which runs with in 4 mins in Toad and also report 6i. But when ran through applications takes 3 to 4 hrs to complete normal.This report fetches huge amount of data will that be the reason for poor performance?? I am unable to figure that out. I was able to avoid full table scan on the tables used. But still have the problem.
    Any suggestions please.
    Thank you in advance.

  • MDX query Running slow in SSRS than in SSMS

    Hi,
    I have a SSRS report which takes 37 secs to execute a single MDX query whereas the same query takes less than 1 sec in SSMS.
    I tried removing the parameters and hardcoding default values, still it takes same time. I also tried using OLE DB data source which also takes same time.
    Please help.

    Hi Purush,
    According to your description, the query execute time in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) takes less than that in SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) report, right? As per my understanding, this is normal phenomenon. Because when we run a query on the
    query designer of the report, first we need pass the query to database, then execute the query and then return the result to query designer. So this 1 second can the time that used to pass the query to database and return the result.
    Hope this helps.

  • Execute query  run fine with numeric data not give result on string data

    Hi master
    Sir I use under blow code for execute query
    sir when I use numeric data then run fine but when I use character data then not give any result
    with numeric run fine
    DECLARE
         DD VARCHAR2(15);
    BEGIN
         DD:=10;
    set_block_property('emp', default_where, 'where DEPTNO='||DD);
    go_block('emp');
    execute_query;
    set_block_property('emp', default_where, '');
    END;
    With character not give any result
    DECLARE
         DD VARCHAR2(15);
    BEGIN
         DD:='SALESMAN';
    set_block_property('emp', default_where, 'where RTRIM(EMPNO)='||DD);
    go_block('emp');
    execute_query;
    set_block_property('emp', default_where, '');
    END;
    Please give me any idea

    bro it is not working on string format coz of the missing quotes. e.g. 'smith' or smith. so the quoted string will be compared. in set_block_property u have to include extra quotes on the variable. e.g.
    set_block_property('emp',default_where,'where ename='''||:emp.ename||'');
    or with conditional statement
    set_block_property('emp',default_where,'where ename='''||:emp.ename||''' and dname='''||dept.deptno||'');
    there i included two extra qoutes before joining ename and in the an extra quote to complete to string. if u would like to debug at runtime to show if the qouted string condition is proper then assign the where clause to a variable and message it up.
    like
    myvariable:='where ename='''||:emp.ename||'';
    message(myvariable);
    message(myvariable);
    set_block_property('emp',default_where,myvariable);
    after the string is quoted properly the execute query will work fine, also use the function upper or lower to compare strings.
