Quick and dirty check which may confirm it's purely the CPU impact of TDE.
AWR (or statspack) reports for matching time periods / batch runs with and
without TDE
a) Is there little change at the report level in buffer gets, and pl/sql CPU
time but a significant increase in CPU time. (check osstats, time model, as
well as Top 10 for this)
b) Does the content of the Top SQL by CPU stay pretty much the same (SQL and
execution count) with increased CPU (per execution)
c) Track the Top SQL by CPU to the TOP SQL by buffer gets, and Top SQL by
physical reads are the gets/reads (per execution) consistent.
d) For "same SQL, significantly different costs per execution" check execution
plans. (awrsqrpt.sql or equivalent).

Subject: Re: Database Encryption
We are using TDE for encryption and also getting the wait event "CPU+wait for
CPU" ... As an evidence we decrypt the database and it behaviour back to normal
as it was prior to encryption.

What evidence do you have that TDE has affected performance 40-50%?
Can you prove that there has not been a change in execution plans?

All,
We have encrypted almost all the datafiles of the database, post that the
performance of the database degraded to almost 40-50%
Could anyone suggest what is the other alternative method that we can use in
order to secure data with bit performance impact.

Arun
