Hi , We have a customer application in which we see high wait events like
'cursor:mutex ' and 'library cache lock' for a select query occasionally
and thus a specific functionality impacted. This select query(which is part
of a plsql procedure) is quick query which runs ~5 million times/hr. But
even though number of execution is same mostly throughout the day, it still
went through these odd wait events making the per execution time went
higher for around ~15 minutes duration causing slowness. And during this
period, the ASH shows fro this query, the value of column in_hard_parse as
'N' but in_parse as 'Y' and 'N' both. And we saw we were having stats
gather running on that base object during same time. We have no_invalidate
set as 'FALSE" as table stats preference, So wanted to understand from
experts, can it be really because of 'parsing' issue and we should delete
this no_invalidate preference so that it can inherit the default global
preference i.e no_invalidate=>auto? The database version is 19C.
