Hi All,
Running Oracle 11g SE on Linux CentOS 6, no advisory pack licensed.

Our production instance so far is accessing some tables from another
instance over the link, both instances hosted at the same location and
connected over the gigabit ethernet.

We quantified the data, at some extent,  that were passing over the link
and decided to use DRIVING_SITE hint to process most queries at the remote
database, and we were fine so far.

Lately our developers are concerned that we are spending lot of time moving
the data over the link and by moving all remote tables to the local
instance will help improve the queries, to that I agree.

But my concern is this - our production instance is running on almost
current hardware and it's already showing some stress - like the normal
server load will stay constantly above 1 and for the large portion of time
above 1.5.

I'm concerned now that moving all remote tables to local instance will
deteriorate overall web response.

Should I be concerned? Is there anyway I can quantify the things in more
granular way?

Thanks in advance.
DP
