How about running SQL trace on the process, followed by TKPROF with the parameters "sort=prsela,exeela,fchela" and "print=5" (to limit results to the five SQL statements consuming the most elapsed time)?  The answer may just pop right out at you, and if not, then you can display the TKPROF output to the list for more useful and informed opinions?

Hi,

 

We are running a query on our DB and even when there is nothing else running on a DB, the query takes different time. Few times it will process 300 records/second and then go back to 10 records/second. There are no Oracle errors or alerts in the log. This is a simple 2-node RAC cluster. These are simple queries, nothing fancy here. We are picking records from one table and put “processed” records in a second table and some “incomplete” records in a 3rd table.

 

Without going into complete details, has anyone on the list seen something like that? Any ideas.

 

Happy Holidays.

 

Thanks,
