  • What causes BUFFER GETS and PHYSICAL READS in INSERT operation to be high?

    Hi All,
    Am performing a huge number of INSERTs to a newly installed Oracle XE 10.2.0.1.0 on Windows. There is no SELECT statement running, but just INSERTs one after the other of 550,000 in count. When I monitor the SESSION I/O from Home > Administration > Database Monitor > Sessions, I see the following stats:
    BUFFER GETS = 1,550,560
    CONSISTENT GETS = 512,036
    PHYSICAL READS = 3,834
    BLOCK CHANGES = 1,034,232
    The presence of 2 stats confuses. Though the operation is just INSERT in database for this session, why should there be BUFFER GETS of this magnitude and why should there by PHYSICAL READS. Aren't these parameters for read operations? The BLOCK CHANGES value is clear as there are huge writes and the writes change these many blocks. Can any kind soul explain me what causes there parameters to show high value?
    The total columns in the display table are as follows (from the link mentioned above)
    1. Status
    2. SID
    3. Database Users
    4. Command
    5. Time
    6. Block Gets
    7. Consistent Gets
    8. Physical Reads
    9. Block Changes
    10. Consistent Changes
    What does CONSISTENT GETS and CONSISTENT CHANGES mean in a typical INSERT operation? And does someone know which all tables are involved in getting these values?
    Thank,
    ...

    The table just have 2 columns, both of which are varchar2 (500). No constraints, no indexes, neither foreign key references are in place. The total size of RAM in system is 1GB, and yes, there are other GUI's going on like Firefox browser, notepad and command terminals.
    But, what does these other applications have to do with Oracle BUFFER GETS, PHYSICAL READS etc.? Awaiting your reply.Total RAM is 1GB. If you let XE decide how much RAM is to be allocated to buffers, on startup that needs to be shared with any/all other applications. Let's say that leaves us with, say 400M for the SGA + PGA.
    PGA is used for internal stuff, such as sorting, which is also used in determing the layout of secondary facets such as indexes and uniqueness. Total PGA usage varies in size based on the number of connections and required operations.
    And then there's the SGA. That needs to cover the space requirement for the data dictionary, any/all stored procedures and SQL statements being run, user security and so on. As well as the buffer blocks which represent the tablespace of the database. Since it is rare that the entire tablespace will fit into memory, stuff needs to be swapped in and out.
    So - put too much space pressure on the poor operating system before starting the database, and the SGA may be squeezed. Put that space pressure on the system and you may enbd up with swapping or paging.
    This is one of the reasons Oracle professionals will argue for dedicated machines to handle Oracle software.

  • Consistent gets and physical reads

    Hi all,
    I am tuning a DM SQL query, by comparing execution plans with STAR TRANSFORMATION enabled or disabled. I got the following results:
    STAR TRANSFORMATION ON
    74889 consistent gets
    254365 physical reads
    STAR TRANSFORMATION OFF
    1945892 consistent gets
    168028 physical reads
    I thought a physical read would be counted as a logical read as well, because the data block would be read from disk (1 physical IO), placed in the buffer cache and then read from there (1 more logical IO or consistent get).
    So, one physical IO does not cause a logical IO?
    Thanks!
    Edited by: user10634835 on 12-Jul-2011 08:40

    But shouldn't consistent gets be >= physical reads (Since, as per my understanding, 1 PIO causes at least 1 LIO)? In this case it is not.
    74889 consistent gets
    254365 physical readsJust clarifying for my knowledge.

  • No physical reads, plenty of consistant gets

    Hi All,
    Oracle v11.2 on Linux.
    Please have a look at the query I ran and the output. The SQL_ID is of a SELECT command.
    What does this situation represents, where there are zero physical reads and plenty of consistant gets ?
    For consistant gets, we do read undo information (correct ??), if that undo is read from disk, will that be a "physical read"? i.e. if we read disks for consistant gets, will that be counted under physical reads or not ?
    How can I describe the exact data retrival of the command here? Is it the case of "everything it needs is found in the buffer cache" ?
    select a.sid, a.value , B.NAME ,  s.sql_id
    from v$sesstat a, v$statname b, v$session s
    where A.STATISTIC# = B.STATISTIC#
    and b.name in ( 'redo size','physical read bytes','physical reads cache','consistent gets' )
    and a.sid = s.sid
    and a.sid=1018
    order by a.sid;
           SID      VALUE NAME                                                             SQL_ID
          1018    7281396 consistent gets                                                  434u36htuz0s9

    >
    There are no physical reads, so weather its doing consistant-gets or not, can I say, all data required for the SELECT was in buffer cache ?
    >
    The data for those system views is cached in memory so Oracle does not read the disk (except at startup) to gather the information.
    Some static information, like dictionary objects, is stored stored on disk in the system tablespace but this data is read when the database is mounted and stored in memory structures.
    Other dynamic information, like session info, is only stored in memory structures (similar to C arrays) and Oracle can query these as if they were tables.
    So no, the data was not in the buffer cache. It was already in system memory.

    Hi,
    Actually you didnt give the exact problem statement.
    Seems to be your database is I/O bound. Ok, do the following one by one:
    1. Identify the FTS queries and try to create the optimal indexes (depending on the disk reads factor!!) on the problem queries.
    2. To reduce the 276M physical reads, you need to allocate more memory to db_cache_size. try 8GB (initially) and then depending on the buffer advisery you can increase further if you have more memory on the box.
    3. as a Next step , configure KEEP and RECYCLE cache to get the benefits of reduced I/O by multiple pools. Allocate objects to the KEEP/RECYCLE pools.
    Thanks,

  • How to reduce physical reads - very interesting issue

    HI,
    Every week i generate a statspack report which will give me top20 buffer gets queries and top 20 physical reads query.When i start reducing physical reads by placing the heavy accessed table in buffer i will get the same query in top 20 higher buffer gets list in the next week.If i want to reduce buffer gets i have to remove the heavy accessed table from buffer which will cause higer physical reads.How can i solve this problem.I am trying to tune query as much as possible.
    Your help is appreciated..
    Thanks and Regards
    Anand

    I think that you are labouring under a misapprehension. Buffer gets and physical reads are basically the same thing. In order to satisfy your query, Oracle needsto read X number of blocks to find all of the data. Admittedly, it is generally faster to read those blocks from memory (buffer gets) than from disk (physical reads), but the blocks have to be read (this is called logical I/O). The only way to reduce I/O is to re-write the query to be more efficient. This may or may not be possible.
    As Kamal said, if the query is fast enough, then you are done. If it is too slow, then you need to look at ways of reducing I/O. It is unlikely that any database parameters will have a significant impact on the I/O. You need to look at the statisitics on the table and the actual sql statement.

  • Physical reads

    I 'm running the same query against two databases on two different servers, and not seeing the expected results.
    Query runs in 6 seconds on server A, and 32 seconds on server B. The database on B is a copy of the database on A, same blocksize, same db_file_multiblock_read_count.
    Query is:
    SELECT
    IMS_BO_PMAN08.REF_ID,( sum(IMS_BO_PMAN08_TRAN.MONTH_13_APR) ) + ( sum(IMS_BO_PMAN08_TRAN.MONTH_14_MAY) ) ,
    decode(IMS_BO_PMAN08_TRAN.TRANS_SUB_TYPE,'A','Actual','F','Forecast'),

    FROM
    IMS_BO_PMAN08,
    IMS_BO_PMAN08_TRAN
    WHERE
    ( IMS_BO_PMAN08.PROG_MAN_ID=IMS_BO_PMAN08_TRAN.PROG_MAN_ID )
    AND ( IMS_BO_PMAN08.VERSION_ID IN (select version_id from ims_bo_version where version_id = 1 ) )
    AND ( IMS_BO_PMAN08.INV_REGION_CODE > 2 )
    and decode(IMS_BO_PMAN08_TRAN.TRANS_SUB_TYPE,'A','Actual','F','Forecast') ='Actual'

    I am seeing the same execution plan when running the query against either database, with the same cost in each case. However, the physical reads on server B is ten times that of on server A

    sort_area_size, sort_area_retained_size & hash_area_size are the same size for both instances, as are all NLS settings.
    Tables are not specified NOCACHE, and there are no additional buffer pools.
    Running with sql_trace enabled for both queries highlighed some very interesting results:
    For the slow query, this is the tkprof output, unfortunately waits=yes is not available in 8.1.6

       77410  lines in trace file.The sql statement as run did not make use of bind variables, so the ones in the tkprof output for the longer running statement made me immediately think of cursor sharing, and right there in the init.ora for the faster running database was CURSOR_SHARING=FORCE.
    I'm not familiar with the history of the databases, nor the specific reasoning for enabling cursor sharing (bind variable usage seems prevalent in all custom code) so I've replicated the setting on the slower database, resulting in a similar tkprof output to the faster server, with a runtime of 7 seconds for 2nd and subsequent runs.
    My immediate issue is now solved, thanks to all who contributed, and apologies for not spotting the obvious earlier.
    Regards, Pete

    Buffer hit cache ratios are totally meaningless as was proven many years ago by Connor's brilliant little utility that allows you to dial in any ratio you want.
    The reason your are getting FTEs is because your totally antiquated version of the product, never supported during the current century, is that it thinks FTEs cost less than using any indexes that may (or may not) exist. You've not established in your email that there are any indexes or posted DDL or provided much of anything else that would be helpful.
    I would think moving from the Jurassic to 10.2.0.4, or above, would be your first priority.

  • Consistent gets are reduced but elapsed time is increased.

    Hi All,
    While tuning a application my consistent gets are reduced by 50% but the query is still taking the same time.
    In a Warehouse env data is coming from With clause that is having some 40000 rows .Then these 40K rows are joined to a table that is having 2 Billion records having indexes on primary key and date column(bitmap)indexes .

    This forum is for issues with the SQL Developer tool. You'd get more response in the General Database forum.
    Have fun,

    Hi ,
    I am tuning a query in DWH env using a WITH clause .Doing that my consistent gets are reduced by 50% but the elapsed time in increased.
    In that one 40000 rows are coming from WITH clause and joined with a table having 250000000 rows joined through Hash join.
    can anybody help me out in this issue.

Normally time goes, down when system resources do - but not always as you are seeing :(. Last time I saw something like this the reads had gone down but the CPU usage had gone up. You can get CPU usage from V$SQL.
    Can you post the query, the execution plan, and statistics - both before and after the tuning?

  • Physical query issued by Obiee when cache is on is different and slow

    When the same report runs in OBIEE 10g and cache is OFF it takes less then 1min to get results. If cache is turned ON physical query issued by Obiee is totally different and it takes 2h to get results. Has anyone experienced this with having cache on that some queries are performing poorly.
    Thanks,
    Tatjana

    We are using BI Apps Order Management and Fulfillment Analytics and all tables are cached anyway. Dimensions used are not that huge up to 40K rows. What should I check when it comes to DB query? As I said is different than one generated when cache is disabled although both have the almost the explain plan.
