Right, it makes sense what page 215 says.
I guess to get the response time using Statspack of a highly loaded system
or badly tuned system, which causes massive waits, is not possible. Not even
with short interval Snapshots correct? If this is the case the closest REAL
response time we can get is with sql trace?
TIA
