I would actually strongly suggest NOT turning it off.  Reason is that the f=
ree management stuff with 10g (and there is a LOT of that by the way) also =
uses it.  Having said that, the stats collection is instrumented into the k=
ernel and has its own self throttling mechanism, so the performance impact =
is minimal.  So unless you're running a TPC-C benchmark, don't worry about =
it.

The only documented way of turning it off that I'm aware of - if you are si=
lly enough to do that ;) - is changing STATISTICS_LEVEL, which also turns o=
ff a lot of the free stuff.

Pete,
Just curious... =

'cause I fall in that poor individuals category... =


If I don't have a Diagnostics Pack license, am I allowed to use the AWR pac=
kage, just
once, to turn the AWR stuff off? If I can't access all that nifty informati=
on without
Diag Pack, why would I want Oracle10g run those snapshots? =


Regards,

- Kirti =
