The 9i and 10g Administrator's Reference , Appendix D /F on Tru64 mentions "spike" as a performance optimization tool on Tru64. eg http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b15658/appf_tru.htm http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b14206/pretru.htm (even the 9iR2 and 10gR1 certification pages mention "spike"). Apparently, the last version release of spike was in 2002. I cannot find much information on it at HP's site. (http://h30097.www3.hp.com/dtk/spike_ov.html)
Has anyone used "spike" ? Under what sort of database/application load did you use "spike" ? What performance gains did you obtain ?
