WAIT = 'direct path read temp' in session
Hi;
select * from v$version
Oracle Database 11g Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
In our development system, a query "insert into X" using a couple of session global temporary tables, was running under 5 minuts, is now taking 40 minuts!
Sql Developer Sessions shows a wait: "direct path read temp"
Any hints on that might cause this, and possible solutions?
Trace file of the session looks like this:

How I can see that? How can I decrease direct path write temp without tuning SQL?
Additional information:

Please, help.

If you have any declared as "on commit preserve" (duration = 'SYS$SESSION') then you could have code which does "insert /*+ append */ into gtt", and if you then query this in parallel (or - since you're on 11.2.0.3 - the data volume is large enough) Oracle could choose to do direct path writes to load the GTT and direct path reads to read it back.

My questions:
1. why 'direct path read temp' just read one block every time, my understanding is this event can read one block and multiple blocks at one read call, why it keep read one block in my session?
2. my pga size is big enough, why this operation can not be treated with in PGA memory, instead of read block from disk into temp tablespace?
Thanks for you inputs.

I just generated the AWR for that period, as get long elapsed time SQL as following

524.11 1 524.11 14.50 99.29 0.30 3cpa9fxny9j35
so I get execution plan as below for these two SQL,
select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_awr('&v_sql_id')); duhz2wtduz709
PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT

| 1 | UPDATE | WORK_PAY_LINE | | | | |
| 2 | INDEX RANGE SCAN| WORK_PAY_LINE | 1 | 37 | 3 (0)| 00:00:01 |
Note
- automatic DOP: Computed Degree of Parallelism is 1 because of parallel thresholdI am not sure the why elapsed time in AWR is different with time in execution plan. Column "Time" in an execution plan is estimated time. In this execution plan Oracle expects to get 1 row, estimated time is 1 sec.
So, you need to check why estimated cardinality is such low, check statistics on the table WORK_PAY_LINE.
You update 10Gb from 16Gb table via Index Range Scan, it looks inefficient here by two reasons:
1. when a table updated via Index Range Scan optimized index maintenance is used. As a result some amount (significant in your case) of workareas is required. Required size depends on size and number of updated indexes and "global memory bound", 1Gb in your case.
2. if required table buffers will not be found in the cache it will be read from disk by single block reads. If you would use Full Table Scan then buffers for update most likely will be found in the cache because before it read by multiblock reads during Full Table Scan.
Figures from your AWR indicate, that only ~ 9% the session waited for I/O and 91% it worked and used CPU
Elapsed Time (s) Executions Elapsed Time per Exec (s) %Total %CPU %IO SQL Id
3,075.35 0 85.10 91.03 8.68 duhz2wtduz709 This amount of CPU time partially required for UPDATE 10Gb of data, partially for sorting during optimized index maintenance.
I would propose to use Table Full Scan here.
Also you can play around and create fake trigger on update, it will make impossible to use optimized index maintenance, usual index maintenance will be used. As a result you can check the same update with the same execution plan (with Index Range Scan) but without optimized index maintenance and "direct path .. temp" wait events.

Hi All,
DB version is 10.2.0.4
An insert statement is running for almost 14 hours now. The wait event shows direct path read temp

Wait Event Direct path read TEMP
HI,
I have two sessions waiting on wait event "DIECT PATH READ TEMP" (both the sessions with same SQL).Those sessions are almost in hung state.If i run that query from any other session,even that gets hanged.I have generated 10046 trace for these and found that all of them are waiting for a index object in TEMP datafile.
Has anyone of you had the same issue.
Please explain me what kind of action i have taken.
I have verified the stats..they are all up to date.
Thanks,
Pramod GarreHi ,
It is IMPOSSIBLE for two SELECT statements to obstruct each other.-
Its not impossible my dear.Do you know something called "Hot Block".Dont you know that in that case select queries obstruct each other??Dont suggest if you dont know.
If you don't post meaningful information, you'll be left with your own mystery-
I agree i have to provide more information.
Thanks

What is p1 for direct path read temp wait event in 11gr1
hi friends,
When i run this query in my database(11gr1) i get this
SELECT P1,P1TEXT FROM V$ACTIVE_SESSION_HISTORY WHERE event='direct path write temp' and sql_id='2sd3hryy2baav';
P1 P1TEXT
1260 file number
As per the documentation given on the link
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28320/waitevents002.htm#
when i run the query for file#
select *
from v$datafile
where file# = file#;
i get no rows returned.
Can someone please tell me what is this value 1266??Hemant K Chitale wrote:
P1 as FILE_ID is actually the value of DB_FILES (an instance parameter) + the temp file id. Check if DB_FILES is set to 1250. In that case P1 of 1260 would mean the 10th TEMPFILE.
How did you came to know that P1.V$ACTIVE_SESSION_HISTORY = DB_FILES + the temp file id ?
Because when I checked in the docs it is saying :
P1 NUMBER First additional parameter
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e25513/dynviews_1007.htm#REFRN30299
Kindly share with us the link, is possible please.

Query Tuning (sequential read + direct path read/write temp)
Following query takes nearly 10 minutes under 10.2.0.2 on WIN2K3 to execute but I am sure there would be an alternate to tune it further.
Major waits are 'db file sequential read' and 'direct path read temp' in addition to 'direct path write temp'
Increasing/tuning the work_area_policy/sort_area_size would help? moving the tables to faster disk would reduce PIO causing sequential read, query re-writing would prove to be helpful?.

I've just realised that I mis-read part of your plan:
199471 HASH GROUP BY (cr=52997832 pr=21720 pw=10311 time=423192867 us)
4013304 TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID CI_FT (cr=52997832 pr=11409 pw=0 time=140469508 us)
17717785 NESTED LOOPS (cr=49295470 pr=8987 pw=0 time=407554071 us)The time component for a line is the time it supplies, plus the sum of the time from its direct descendents.
In this case I looked at the HASH GROUP BY and TABLE ACCESS and got a difference of about 283 seconds. In fact I should have taken more notice of the other lines in the plan - comparing the HASH GROUP BY with the NESTED LOOP for a difference of about 16 seconds and assuming that the time in the TABLE ACCESS line was not to be trusted. (See http://jonathanlewis.wordpress.com/2007/04/26/heisenberg/ for a couple of comments on the timing issue).
So the grouping is responsible for relatively little of the excess time - most of the time goes into the nested loop.
I shall be using the Hints as advised, when we say we
have to "rewrite the query"
given the current context excluding the HINTS, what
exactly should I be
considering in terms of query rewrite, what
additional intelligence I can add to the
query in question so that CBO produces a different
plan.
The main consideration is what the query is supposed to report. Compare this with the way the optimizer is running the query and see if it makes sense.
When are talking about high intermediate rows
processing are we referring to this
section of the plan?;

Correct - one of the nested loops returns 2.78M rows - but as you run the next join you end up collecting 13.7M entires from the next index and table. That step is responsible for quite a lot of your work and time (as is the following step where you USE the 13.7M rows to probe the next index/table combination). If the optimizer had not grown the data set by merging the P view earlier on, the data sizes would be significantly smaller at that point.
Your inline view looks as if it is trying to turn rows into columns (the max(decode()) trick) - which is why I think it might be a good idea to stop Oracle from merging the view. So, as I suggested, look at the query withouth that bit of complexity and work out a sensible way to walk through the tables - bearing in mind the statistics below and the available indexes, and the amount of data your predicates identify at each stage.
Moreover tables have been analyzed:
CI_ACCT 243068
CI_ACCT_CHAR 222320
CI_ACCT_PER 242971
CI_FT 794510
CI_PER 13227
CI_PER_CHAR 42555
CI_PER_PHONE 18488
CI_SA 1082301
Parameters:
optimizer_features_enable string 10.2.0.2
optimizer_index_caching integer 100
optimizer_index_cost_adj integer 1
Unless you've been given strict instructions by a 3rd-part supplier, those settings for the optimizer_index_caching and optimizer_index_cost_adj are particularly bad - especially in 10g. With those settings, the optimizer is quite likely to choose stupid plans with excessive use of indexes - and pick the wrong index while doing it.
It's not appropriate to fiddle with system parameters to address one query - but at some stage you need to rethink your entire set of parameter settings to do things the 10g way. See this note from the Optimizer Group: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/db/10g/pdf/twp_bidw_optimizer_10gr2_0208.pdf

While i check my awr report, it take large time for direct path write temp.
Anybody help me to find the root cause and how to tune the database.
Please help me..
While -
Hi All,
We are using 10.2.0.3 on sparc solaris 10 64bit OS.
I was wondering about two events in my environment which is taking some long time. Yes, we are doing huge amount of grouping, sorting and hash joins which spill data to temp.
Mostly, all time goes to "direct path read temp". I took trace and saw that it's just reading 1 block every time(p3) vs other reads like scattered or direct path write it read/write 32 blocks.
direct path read temp 241389 4.19 2511.08
direct path write 2 0.00 0.00So, is there any reason why direct path read temp would read only one block at time ? Can we set something that can make it read more blocks in one fetchThanks Greg for update i had done some testing and here are the results. Yes read are happening in multiblock. I think it has improved performance for sorting and other temp related things. But why timing are still same ?
1. Without setting any parameter. also MBRC set to 64 also partition table are on 32k blocksize tablespace.

Serial table scan with direct path read compared to db file scattered read
Hi,
The environment
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit

TDASH 1,943,823 7,153 805 0
Objectives
To show that when serial scans are performed on database built on Solid State Disks (SSD) compared to Magnetic disks (HDD), the performance gain is far less compared to random reads with index scans on SSD compared to HDD
Approach
We want to read the first 100 rows of tdash table randomly into buffer, taking account of wait events and wait times generated. The idea is that on SSD the wait times will be better compared to HDD but not that much given the serial nature of table scans.
The code used
ALTER SESSION SET TRACEFILE_IDENTIFIER = 'test_with_tdash_ssdtester_noindex';
DECLARE
type array is table of tdash%ROWTYPE index by binary_integer;
l_data array;
l_rec tdash%rowtype;
BEGIN
SELECT
a.*
,RPAD('*',4000,'*') AS PADDING1
,RPAD('*',4000,'*') AS PADDING2
BULK COLLECT INTO
l_data
FROM ALL_OBJECTS a;
DBMS_MONITOR.SESSION_TRACE_ENABLE ( waits=>true );
FOR rs IN 1 .. 100
LOOP
BEGIN
SELECT * INTO l_rec FROM tdash WHERE object_id = l_data(rs).object_id;
EXCEPTION

END;
END LOOP;

Schema was specified.
Table was created.
Table was dropped.
1357958 lines in trace file.
4299 elapsed seconds in trace file.I note that there are 1,517,504 waits with direct path read with total time of nearly 6,200 seconds. In comparison with no direct path read, there are 1,218,651 db file scattered read waits with total wait time of 3,770 seconds. My understanding is that direct path read can use single or multi-block read into the PGA. However db file scattered reads do multi-block read into multiple discontinuous SGA buffers. So it is possible given the higher number of direct path waits that the optimizer cannot do multi-block reads (contigious buffers within PGA) and hence has to revert to single blocks reads which results in more calls and more waits?.
Appreciate any advise and apologies for being long winded.
Thanks,
MichHi Charles,
I am doing your tests for t1 table using my server.
Just to clarify my environment is:
I did the whole of this test on my server. My server has I7-980 HEX core processor with 24GB of RAM and 1 TB of HDD SATA II for test/scratch backup and archive. The operating system is RHES 5.2 64-bit installed on a 120GB OCZ Vertex 3 Series SATA III 2.5-inch Solid State Drive.
Oracle version installed was 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 -64bit. The binaries were created on HDD. Oracle itself was configured with 16GB of SGA, of which 7.5GB was allocated to Variable Size and 8GB to Database Buffers.
For Oracle tablespaces including SYS, SYSTEM, SYSAUX, TEMPORARY, UNDO and redo logs, I used file systems on 240GB OCZ Vertex 3 Series SATA III 2.5-inch Solid State Drive. With 4K Random Read at 53,500 IOPS and 4K Random Write at 56,000 IOPS (manufacturer’s figures), this drive is probably one of the fastest commodity SSDs using NAND flash memory with Multi-Level Cell (MLC). Now my T1 table created as per your script and has the following rows and blocks (8k block size)
SELECT
NUM_ROWS,
BLOCKS
FROM
USER_TABLES
WHERE
TABLE_NAME='T1';
NUM_ROWS BLOCKS
12000000 178952which is pretty identical to yours.
Then I run the query as brelow
set timing on
ALTER SESSION SET TRACEFILE_IDENTIFIER = 'test_bed_T1';
ALTER SESSION SET EVENTS '10046 TRACE NAME CONTEXT FOREVER, LEVEL 8';
SELECT
COUNT(*)
FROM
T1
WHERE
RN=1;
which gives
COUNT(*)
60000

It appears to me that my CPU utilisation is by order of magnitude better but my elapsed time is worse!
Now the way I see it elapsed time = CPU time + wait time. Further down I have

roughly 17.5/129759 = .00013 sec for single block I/O and 3770.02/1218651 = .0030 for multi-block I/ONow my theory is that the improvements comes from the large buffer cache (8320MB) inducing it to do some read aheads (async pre-fetch). Read aheads are like quasi logical I/Os and they will be cheaper compared to physical I/O. When there is large buffer cache and read aheads can be done then using buffer cache is a better choice than PGA?

Oracle direct path read IO size
Hello!
I am confused a little with IO size. I am running 11.2.0.3 on Oracle Linux x64 6.2. Block_size=8K, MULTIBOCK_READ_COUNT=128
Database is Single Instance and is using ASM grid. ASM AU =1M
As a test I am running a simple query against large table with 1.5Bln rows.
select /*+ PARALLEL (STOCK_DAY 10) */ count(*) from stock_day where cstast='NA'

when I am trying to measure disk io statistics with iostat it shows that Oracle is issuing a 32K direct path read requests to ASM LUNs. Why? Why not 1M?
Thank you in advance!

Kirill

in fact as you can see almost all direct path reads are done with io size > 900K. Total size of information read by process~160M
strace shows a lot of calls to read function. If we divide 160M/78000 reads we will get about 2K per request which is strange

according to iostat we see that we are reading from each LUN with requests of 32K

Does anyone know how to control/predict the use of Adaptive Direct path Reads in 11g ?? For the unitiated, this is a new behavior of 11g, where if Oracle perceives a large amount of data is going to be "scanned", it switches to reading directly into the PGA, bypassing the SGA.
PROS -
-- Direct Path reads are much faster than db scattered reads.
-- These large reads (usually FTS) do not flush useful blocks out of the SGA.
CONS --
-- The results are not cached for the next query accessing them.
-- Multiple large reads of the same data, do not share blocks, and can overwhelm a system.
This last CON is the reason for this question.. I have an application that did 33 concurrent FTS of the same table . Since it did direct path reads for every session, none of the blocks were shared, and each process read the same blocks from disk directly into the PGA. What was the result ??? The storage team reported that the FA's were totally saturated, something they had never seen in their careeer. One little blade with 33 processes overwhelmed our infrastructure with a FTS.
Also, this makes it difficult to utilize Dbreplay. I am trying to compare the performance of the 10g optimizer to the 11g optimizer by changing the Optimizer_features_enabled.. This does NOT stop direct path reads from happening.. The PHV is the same regardless of whether it uses direct path reads or not.. This behavior can affect my results (good or bad), and thus obfuscate the interpretations of the performance when upgrading.Bryan Grenn wrote:
1) NO one else is really seeing issues with it on 11g, and I'm the only one that has gotten bitten by it.
or
2) Not enough customer base has upgraded and seen this.
I've seen it twice and (given the comments in the link above) presumably Tanel has seen it too. SO I'd gp with (2).
There's a bit of a catch-22 with this. When the database starts up the object is not cached, so the code goes for a direct path read. Because it's doing direct path reads it doesn't get cached as quickly as it used to be - so Oracle carries on doing direct path reads.

Getting wait event "direct path write temp" during query execution
Hi All,
While executing one query in database, it is taking longer time and failing with error "ORA-01652: unable to extend temp segment by 1280 in tablespace PSTEMP".
I have increaesd the Temp tablespace size also till 96GB, Database size is 120GB.
I have upgraded the database from 10.2.0.3 to 11.2.0.3 version last month.
same query is running fine in other databases on same version.
It is giving me "Direct write temp path" wait event.
server load is also normal.
I have increased pga_aggregate_target upto 512MB but it has not solved my problem
Can you please help me out to solve this issue.Hi Nicolay,
Please find below output from that query :

Direct Path Read waits are not showing in Elapsed time
Hi,
I'm having a question regarding interpretation of a SQL trace file. I'm on Oracle 11.2.0.1 HP/UX 64 bit.
Following is only the overall result of the trace (it is quite big).
My question is about the Direct Path Read waits which are totallizing 268s of wait but are not showing in the fetch elapsed time (49.58s) and are not showing anywhere in the trace except in the overall result.
I do not understand why it is not part of the Elapsed time...
For info, the trace is for the specific session that was performing all the required queries to display an online report. The database is accessed by the Java application using Hybernate.
The trace was obtained by the following SQL:
exec sys.dbms_monitor.serv_mod_act_trace_enable(service_name=>'SYS$USERS',waits=>true,binds=>true);Then I query the sessions to find the one created by the application.

I suggest you try the following to narrow down things:
1. Open the RAW trace file and check the cursor numbers of the "direct path reads" - check if you can find any references for those cursor numbers manually. The cursor numbers are those numbers behind the WAIT #<xx>, and you can check if you find any other entry unequal to WAIT #<xx> with the same #<xx>, for example EXEC #<xx> or FETCH #<xx>
A short primer on how to interpret the raw trace file can also be found in MOS document 39817.1
2. Run the RAW trace file through alternative free trace file analyzers like SQLDeveloper (yes it can process raw trace files), OraSRP or Christian Antognini's TVD$XTAT. If you have My Oracle Support access you can also try Oracle's own extended Trace Analyzer (TRCA / TRCANLZR). See MOS Note 224270.1
Check if these tools tell you more about your specific wait event and oddities with the trace file in general.

Wait events 'direct path write' and 'direct path read'
Hi,
We have a query which is taking more that 2 min. It's a 9.2.0.7 database. We took the trace/tkprof of the query,and identified that there are so manay 'direct path write' and 'direct path read' wait events in the trace file.
WAIT #3: nam='direct path write' ela= 5 p1=201 p2=70710 p3=15
WAIT #3: nam='direct path read' ela= 170 p1=201 p2=71719 p3=15
In the above, "p1=201" is a file_id, but we could not find any data file, temp file, control file with that id# 201.
Can you please let us know what's "p1=201" here, how to identify the file which is causing the issue.
Thanks
SravanWhat does:
show parameter db_filesreturn? My guess, is that it returns 200.
The direct file read and direct file write events are reads and writes to TEMP tablespace. In those wait events, the file# is reported as db_files+temp file id. So, 201 means temp file #1.
Now, as to your actual performance problem.
Without seeing the SQL and the corresponding execution plan, it's impossible to be sure. However, the most common causes of temp writes are sort operations and group by operations.
If you decide to post your SQL and execution plan, please be sure to make it readable by formatting it. Information on how to do so can be found here.
Hope that helps,
-Mark
