http://www.oraperf.com/ does a pretty good analysis of StatsPack
reports. It's probably worth a look.
I always start with a quick check of Execute to Parse % and % Non-parse
CPU in the instance efficiency percentages. After that it's on to the
Top 5 Timed Events. From there, it really depends on what events appear
in the Top 5.
CPU time? Look at your SQL ordered by Gets.....any SQLs doing insane
numbers of buffer gets/exec?
db file sequential read? Again, look at SQL ordered by Gets, and
possibly also SQL ordered by Reads.
db file scattered read? Again, poorly tuned sql....
enqueues? Needs more analysis...could be application design issues,
could be block level concurrency, could be several different things, you
need to deep dive into the enqueues data and see which specific enqueues
have the most waits.
log file sync? Look at commit frequency and also response time of the
disks the online redo logs are on
latch free? Depends on the latch. Cache buffers chains is likely to be
either inefficient SQL, or possibly some Oracle bug
This is a *far* from complete list....The idea is, start with the Top 5
Timed Events, cause that's where the bottlenecks are. Depending on what
YOUR Top 5 are, will tell you where to go next.
Hope that helps,
-Mark

"Exception: Some dividends may be reported as qualified dividends but
are not qualified dividends. These include:
* Dividends you received on any share of stock that you held for less
than 61 days during the 121-day period that began 60 days before the
ex-dividend date. The ex-dividend date is the first date following the
declaration of a dividend on which the purchaser of a stock is not
entitled to receive the next dividend payment. When counting the number
of days you held the stock, include the day you disposed of the stock
but not the day you acquired it. See the examples below. Also, when
counting the number of days you held the stock, you cannot count certain
days during which your risk of loss was diminished. See Pub. 550 for
more details."

Subject: Reading statspack reports
Does anyone have a quick cheat sheet for reading statspack reports or
can
refer me to a site where I can obtain it? I've seen a lot of stuff on
Metalink but nothing that is short of quick and to the point.
