The parameters you want to set are "make_queries_run_faster" set to true, and "bypass_suboptimal_design" also set to true. You should be on the right Oracle version, set those two parameters, and everything will run much faster. Alternatively, one could experiment with using the THC method for tuning the RDBMS performance (THC=Tetrahydrocannabinol) which is the extension of the "method C" from Cary's book. -- Mladen Gogala Oracle DBA ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to: oracle-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. -- Archives are at //www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/ FAQ is at //www.freelists.org/help/fom-serve/cache/1.html -----------------------------------------------------------------
