COUG October 18th Event featuring Wolfgang Breitling from Centrex Consulting Corporation
Speaker: Wolfgang Breitling, Centrex Consulting Corporation
- Wolfgang Breitling is an independent consultant specializing in administering and tuning Peoplesoft on Oracle
- The particular challenges in tuning Peoplesoft, often with no access to the SQL, motivated him to explore Oracle’s cost-based optimizer in an effort to gain a better understanding of how it works and use that knowledge in tuning
- He has shared the findings from this research in papers and presentations at IOUG, UKOUG, local Oracle user groups, and other conferences and newsgroups dedicated to Oracle performance topics
Presentation: Statistics Gathering and Histograms – DOs and DON’Ts
The presentation will show with examples what can go wrong when gathering object statistics
and in particular, but not limited to, when gathering histograms
- Why statistics, even though they are up-to-date and “accurate’, may be wrong for the job – which is to give the optimizer the right information to generate an optimal, or at least adequate, execution plan
- From that we shall try to develop some rules of what to do when, how and how often – and, just as important, what not to
