What I want is to see an accurate trace of the query running with=20 parallel query turned on, so I can be sure that when I turn it off the=20= query is running at least as efficiently as it was before. =46rom the message I posted yesterday (which may not have gone out, = since=20 no-one responded): tkprof output with parallel query on: call count cpu elapsed disk query current rows ------- ------ -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Parse 1 0.01 0.01 0 0 0 0 Execute 1 0.00 0.06 0 0 3 0 Fetch 2 0.01 0.12 0 73 0 1 ------- ------ -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- total 4 0.02 0.19 0 73 3 1 Misses in library cache during parse: 1 Optimizer goal: CHOOSE Parsing user id: 38 Rows Row Source Operation ------- --------------------------------------------------- 1 SORT AGGREGATE 0 SORT AGGREGATE 0 NESTED LOOPS 0 HASH JOIN 0 TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID ACS_RELS 109 INDEX RANGE SCAN (object id 26428) 0 TABLE ACCESS FULL MEMBERSHIP_RELS 0 INDEX UNIQUE SCAN (object id 26694) tkprof output with parallel query off: call count cpu elapsed disk query current rows ------- ------ -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Parse 1 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 0 Execute 1 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 0 Fetch 2 0.16 0.16 0 657 6 1 ------- ------ -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- total 4 0.16 0.16 0 657 6 1 Misses in library cache during parse: 1 Optimizer goal: CHOOSE Parsing user id: 38 Rows Row Source Operation ------- --------------------------------------------------- 1 SORT AGGREGATE 108 NESTED LOOPS 109 HASH JOIN 108 TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID ACS_RELS 109 INDEX RANGE SCAN (object id 26428) 170140 TABLE ACCESS FULL MEMBERSHIP_RELS 108 INDEX UNIQUE SCAN (object id 26694) Although the elapsed time was a bit smaller for the case where parallel=20= query is off (which is what I was hoping to see), it looks like it did=20= a bit more work, and I was perplexed by that. So I'd like to see the=20 work being done by the slaves in the first case, so I can verify that=20 it's about the same either way. thanks! janine -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
