Jared,
Thank you for sharing the queries.
But I'm looking for a more general method that is not looking to the advisory
tables.
Reason for this is that I think that the figures in the advisory are pushed
higher because of a query that is executed every 10, 15 minutes and that is
performing a full table scan on a 2 GB (and growing) table.
ps) The vendor is writing a patch to deal with this problem query.

I've used the attached scripts to query v$db_cache_advice
and v$shared_pool_advice.
I have not done any testing to verify the accuracy of the
claims of the cache advice, but have found the v$advice
tables to be useful.

Hi,
I have a situation in which the application vendor is asking to increase the
buffer cache size to resolve a performance issue, pointing to the advisories
from the dbconsole.
Although I have already proved via tracing that the problem is mainly in the
queries and schema design, and that even if we cached everything we still would
not be able to get the requested response times, they are still pointing to the
advisory.
All this asside, it made me wonder what would be a good method to verify if the
buffer cache is correctly sized?
Same question for the shared pool.
