Hello Paula I just noticed a thread on the following URL. Please take a look. http://www.experts-exchange.com/Databases/Oracle/Q_20544341.html HTH -Rajeev On 12/20/06, Paula Stankus <paulastankus@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Guys, A very large percentage of the waits on our database are for Queue Messages. This is consistent. This is the first time I have seen this as one of the top waits on a database and at such a high percentage consistently. I have been researching Metalink, Google, various sites and even the great book on Waits by Kirti and Richmond. However, I do not find very much information specifically on this wait event. Help, does anyone have any references they can point me to that would explain the following: -how to determine what processes or type of processes produce these waits -how to measure what kind of an issue they are on your database -things you can do to resolve this wait -Where can you go besides Statspack for more detailed information about what is causing this event Thanks in advance.
