Hi, I need to find out how often a particular query (identified by SQL id) is run. If possible also how long executions take and if the execution plan varies. Database version is 10.2.0.4 Standard Edition on Windows. Do I have to schedule a job to query v$sqlarea regularly? Or is there something better (Statspack?) Thanks for your help.
