Oracle Query Performance

hello,
I want to optimize my sql queries. I want to know what statement impact query retrieval / processing. Cany any one help me to guide what to avoid while writing sql queries?

Hi,
I want to optimize my sql queriesOk, the work with autotrace, or sql trace and tkprof.
I want to know what statement impact query retrieval / processing.Do you want to know which are the "slow" queries ? Then you can use STATSPACK and/or AWR.
Cany any one help me to guide what to avoid while writing sql queries? I'm not sure to understand you here. Please, explain a little bit more.

  • Oracle Query Performance While calling a function in a View

    Hi,
    We have a performance issue in one of our Oracle queries.
    Here is the scenario
    We use a hard coded value (which is the maximum value from a table) in couple of DECODE statements in our query. We would like to remove this hard coded value from the query. So we wrote a function which will return a maximum value from the table. Now when we execute the query after replacing the hard coded value with the function, this function is called four times which hampers the query performance.
    Pl find below the DECODE statements in the query. This query is part of a main VIEW.
    Using Hardcoded values
    =================
    DECODE(pro_risk_weighted_ctrl_scr, 10, 9.9, pro_risk_weighted_ctrl_scr)
    DECODE(pro_risk_score, 46619750, 46619749, pro_risk_score)
    Using Functions
    ============
    DECODE (pro_risk_weighted_ctrl_scr, rprowbproc.fn_max_rcsa_range_values ('CSR'), rprowbproc.fn_max_rcsa_range_values('CSR')- 0.1, pro_risk_weighted_ctrl_scr)
    DECODE (pro_risk_score, rprowbproc.fn_max_rcsa_range_values ('RSR'), rprowbproc.fn_max_rcsa_range_values ('RSR') - 1, pro_risk_score)
    Can any one suggest a way to improve the performance of the query.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Query Performance issue in Oracle Forms

    Hi All,
    I am using oracle 9i DB and forms 6i.
    In query form ,qry took long time to load the data into form.
    There are two tables used here.
    1 table(A) contains 5 crore records another table(B) has 2 crore records.
    The recods fetching range 1-500 records.
    Table (A) has no index on main columns,after created the index on main columns in table A ,the query is fetched the data quickly.
    But DBA team dont want to create index on table A.Because of table space problem.
    If create the index on main table (A) ,then performance overhead in production.
    Concurrent user capacity is 1500.
    Is there any alternative methods to handle this problem.
    Regards,
    RS

    1) What is a crore? Wikipedia seems to indicate that it's either 10,000,000 or 500,000
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crore
    I'll assume that we're talking about tables with 50 million and 20 million rows, respectively.
    2) Large tables with no indexes are definitely going to be slow. If you don't have the disk space to create an appropriate index, surely the right answer is to throw a bit of disk into the system.
    3) I don't understand the comment "If create the index on main table (A) ,then performance overhead in production." That seems to contradict the comment you made earlier that the query performs well when you add the index. Are you talking about some other performance overhead?

  • Weblogic 8.1.6 and Oracle 9.2.0.8 - query performance

    Folks,
    We are upgrading WebLogic from 8.1.5 to 8.1.6 and Oracle from 9.2.0.6 to 9.2.0.8. We use the Oracle thin client driver for 9.2.0.8 to connect from the application to Oracle.
    When we use the following combination of the stack we see SQL query performance degradation: -
    Oracle 9.2.0.8 database, Oracle 9.2.0.8 driver, WL 8.1.6
    Oracle 9.2.0.8 database, Oracle 9.2.0.1 driver, WL 8.1.6
    We do not see the degradation in case of the following: -
    Oracle 9.2.0.8 database, Oracle 9.2.0.1 driver, WL 8.1.5
    Oracle 9.2.0.6 database, Oracle 9.2.0.1 driver, WL 8.1.5
    This shows that the problem could be with the WL 8.1.6 version and I was wondering if any of you have faced this before? The query retrieves a set of data from Oracle none of which contain the AsciiStream data type, which is noted as a problem in WL 8.1.6, but that too, only for WL JDBC drivers.
    Any ideas appreciated.

  • Query performance.

    Hi
    I have created a procedure that accepts two bind variables from a report. The user will select one or the other, both or neither of the variables. To return the appropriate results i have created a view with the entire result set and in the procedure are a number of if statements that determine what to place in the where clause selecting from the view, depending on what variables populated.
    My concern is that the query that generates the view includes several joins and in total outputs around 150,000 records and seems to be rather slow to run.
    Would you recommend another solution such as placing the query in the procedure itself repeated for every if statement?
    Or should I work on the query performance?
    What would be the most efficient solution for my problem?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi Surendra,
    Based on the current description, I understand that you may use Oracle Provider for OLE DB to connect Oracle database. If so, I suggest you using Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle to compare the query time between SQLPlus and SSRS.

  • Poor query performance when using date range

    Hello,
    We have the following ABAP code:

    Volker,
    Answering your question, regarding the explain from ST05. As a quick work around I created an index (S911~Z9), but still I'd like to solve this issue without this extra index, as primary index would work ok, as long as date was correctly sent to oracle as string and not as number.

  • Poor query performance when joining CONTAINS to another table

    We just recently began evaluating Oracle Text for a search solution. We need to be able to search a table that can have over 20+ million rows. Each user may only have visibility to a tiny fraction of those rows. The goal is to have a single Oracle Text index that represents all of the searchable columns in the table (multi column datastore) and provide a score for each search result so that we can sort the search results in descending order by score. What we're seeing is that query performance from TOAD is extremely fast when we write a simple CONTAINS query against the Oracle Text indexed table. However, when we attempt to first reduce the rows the CONTAINS query needs to search by using a WITH we find that the query performance degrades significantly.
    For example, we can find all the records a user has access to from our base table by the following query:
    SELECT d.duns_loc
    FROM duns d
    JOIN primary_contact pc
    ON d.duns_loc = pc.duns_loc
    AND pc.emp_id = :employeeID;
    This query can execute in <100 ms. In the working example, this query returns around 1200 rows of the primary key duns_loc.
    Our search query looks like this:
    SELECT score(1), d.*
    FROM duns d
    WHERE CONTAINS(TEXT_KEY, :search,1) > 0
    ORDER BY score(1) DESC;
    The :search value in this example will be 'highway'. The query can return 246k rows in around 2 seconds.
    2 seconds is good, but we should be able to have a much faster response if the search query did not have to search the entire table, right? Since each user can only "view" records they are assigned to we reckon that if the search operation only had to scan a tiny tiny percent of the TEXT index we should see faster (and more relevant) results. If we now write the following query:
    WITH subset
    AS
    (SELECT d.duns_loc
    FROM duns d
    JOIN primary_contact pc
    ON d.duns_loc = pc.duns_loc
    AND pc.emp_id = :employeeID
    SELECT score(1), d.*
    FROM duns d
    JOIN subset s
    ON d.duns_loc = s.duns_loc
    WHERE CONTAINS(TEXT_KEY, :search,1) > 0
    ORDER BY score(1) DESC;
    For reasons we have not been able to identify this query actually takes longer to execute than the sum of the durations of the contributing parts. This query takes over 6 seconds to run. We nor our DBA can seem to figure out why this query performs worse than a wide open search. The wide open search is not ideal as the query would end up returning records to the user they don't have access to view.
    Has anyone ever ran into something like this? Any suggestions on what to look at or where to go? If anyone would like more information to help in diagnosis than let me know and i'll be happy to produce it here.
    Thanks!!

    Sometimes it can be good to separate the tables into separate sub-query factoring (with) clauses or inline views in the from clause or an in clause as a where condition. Although there are some differences, using a sub-query factoring (with) clause is similar to using an inline view in the from clause. However, you should avoid duplication. You should not have the same table in two different places, as in your original query. You should have indexes on any columns that the tables are joined on, your statistics should be current, and your domain index should have regular synchronization, optimization, and periodically rebuild or drop and recreate to keep it performing with maximum efficiency. The following demonstration uses a composite domain index (cdi) with filter by, as suggested by Roger, then shows the explained plans for your original query, and various others. Your original query has nested loops. All of the others have the same plan without the nested loops. You could also add index hints.

  • SELECT query performance : One big table Vs many small tables

    Hello,
    We are using BDB 11g with SQLITE support. I have a query about 'select' query performance when we have one huge table vs. multiple small tables.
    Basically in our application, we need to run select query multiple times and today we have one huge table. Do you guys think breaking them into
    multiple small tables will help ?
    For test purposes we tried creating multiple tables but performance of 'select' query was more or less same. Would that be because all tables will map to only one database in backed with key/value pair and when we run lookup (select query) on small table or big table it wont make difference ?
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    There is some information on this topic in the FAQ at:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/berkeley-db/faq/db_faq.html#9-63
    If this does not address your question, please just let me know.
    Thanks,

  • Oracle Express Performance

    Hi,
    We are using Oracle Express 6.3.2 & Oracle 8.1.5 for a decision
    support system that we are building.
    We are using a server with 2GB RAM, Dual CPU( 550MHz) along with
    more than 100 GB HDD.The OS being used is Windows NT enterprise
    edition server 4.0.On which both Oracle Relational database and
    Express express server resides.
    The building of multi-dimensional database(MDDB) doesn't take
    time, we are using around 9 dimensions with total data in MDDB
    being in the range of 5- 10 Lakhs records.The building time is
    about 3 minutes.
    However, the running of an application(XPJ) based on the MDDB
    takes lot of time. The report takes about 2 Minutes to appear
    and situtation is even worse in what-if analysis kind of
    reports!.The MDDB is being accessed from Windows NT Client
    workstation 4.0 with 128 MB RAM.
    We have read Oracle Express Performance Tuning and Database
    Design Guide which is available from both Oracle Technology
    Network (technet.oracle.com) and Metalink, however it doesn't
    seem to be of much help.The sparsity etc. have been taken care
    of by us.
    CAN ANYBODY PROVIDE ASSISTANCE ON THIS ISSUE OR IS IT NORMAL
    THING TO EXPECT FROM ORACLE EXPRESS????...., .Request someone to
    respond to this issue, as it very urgent & bothersome to us.
    Thanks

    Dear Friend,
    I am trying to configure reports for express data and in this regard I have done the following :
    1.Machine A having reports 9i Developer suite Release 2 and Pluggable Express Connection Editor installed on Windows 2000 professional.
    2.Machine B having which Express Server 6.3.4 installed on Windows 2000 professional.
    3.In Machine A created user OESDBA with Administrator privilige.
    In the reports I am able to connect to the Express Server and attach the database and choose the measure.Once all the other steps are done I am able to print the data on the reports.
    But if I use a parameter form in which I give the HOST,USER and PASSWORD then substitute the same in the express_server parameter value in the AFTER PARAMETER FORM trigger block then the report gives an error saying that
    Express query contains incorrect,missing or damaged information.
    How to solve this error ?
    Can you please help.

    What version of Oracle are you using?
    Your sample query is a good example of the benefits and costs of 'mixed' queries, and the challenges of mixed query performance. Oracle 11g has some very helpful new features (search for SDATA) that can really improve performance. (Specifically, it looks like your query does some useful date-range bounding. You need to get that into the FT index).
    In the end, it's not going to be easy to look at your reasonably complex query, understand the data and relationships, and wave the magic wand to make the thing go fast.

  • Query performance vs MySQL

    I have a table with about 500 million records in it stored within both Oracle and MySQL (MyISAM). I have a column (say phone_number) with a standard b-tree index on it in both places. Without data or indexes cached (not enough memory to fully cache the index), I run about 10,000 queries using randomly generated phone numbers as criteria in 10 concurrent threads. It seems that the average time to retrieve a record in MySQL is about 200 milliseconds whereas in Oracle it is about 400 milliseconds. I'm just wondering if MyISAM/MySQL is inherently faster for a basic index search than Oracle is, or should I be able to tune Oracle to get comparable performance.
    Of course the hardware configurations and storage configurations are the same. It's not the absolute time I'm concerned about here but the relative time. Twice as long to perform basically the same query seems concerning. I enabled tracing and it seems like some of the problem may be the recursive calls Oracle is making. Is there some way to optimize this a bit further?
    Realize, I just want to look at query performance right now...ignoring all of the issues (locking, transactional integrity, etc.)
    Thanks,
    Greg

    In Oracle, a standard table is heap-organized. A b-tree index then contains index keys and ROWIDs, so if you need to read a particular row in the table, you first do a few I/O's on the index to get the ROWIDs and then look up the ROWIDs in the table. For any given key, ROWIDs are likely to be scattered throughout the table, so this latter step generally involves multiple scattered I/O's.
    You can create an index-organized table or a hash cluster in Oracle in order to minimize the cost of this particular sort of lookup by clustering data with the same key physically near each other and, in the case of IOTs, potentially eliminating the need to store the index and table separately. Of course, there are costs to doing this in that inserts are now more expensive and secondary indexes are likely to be less useful. That probably gets you closer to what MySQL is doing if, as ajallen indicates, a MySQL table is generally stored more like an IOT than a heap-organized table.
    If you get really creative, you could even partition this single table to potentially improve performance further.
    Of course, if you're only storing one table, I'm not sure that you could really justify the cost of an Oracle license. This may well be the case where MySQL is more than sufficient for what this particular customer needs (knowing, nothing, of course, about the other requirements for the system).

  • Oracle 10g performance is slow

    Dear Exports
    how we can imporve the Oracle 10g performance........we are upgrading from Oracle 8 to Oracle 10g. Windows platform. and using Oracle developer 6 as front end .
    thanks in advance

    Do you have statistics gathered on the tables in the 8i database? Can you post the explain plan for the query in both databases?
    Since you know what SQL is having poor performance you can use TKPROF and SQL TRACE to see where your query is spending its time.
    Try the following:
    alter session set timed_statistics=true;
    alter session set max_dump_file_size=unlimited;
    alter session set tracefile_identifier='BAD_SQL';
    alter session set events '10046 trace name context forever, level 12';
    <insert sql with poor response time>
    disconnect
    Use the TKPROF utility on the file found in USER_DUMP_DEST that contains the string BAD_SQL.
    For information on how to interrupt the TKPROF output, see the following link.
