Agenda
1. Tuning – A history
2. Tuning – Objectives
3. Tuning – Pareto Principle
4. Real-time analysis
5. Historic Performance analysis
6. SQL tuning
7. SO tools

Tuning - History
Counters/Ratios
• Introduction of Wait Event instrumentation @Oracle 7
Time-Based tuning
• YAPP Method (Yet Another Performance Profiling Method)
• Method R
• DB Time Tuning

Tuning - History
*Diagnostic and Tuning Pack are database options available only on Oracle Enterprise Edition
** US$60K = 1 Oracle EE + 1 Diag+Tuning Pack License
Oracle Version Tool Cost
7 / 8 utlbstat/utlestat Free
8i (8.1.6+) / 9i Statspack Free
10g or > Statspack
Diagnostic / Tuning Pack*
Free
US$ 60K/license**

Tuning - Objectives
1. Define performance and performance problems
2. Check the performance of the Oracle DB
3. Check the overall performance of the server and storage

Tuning - Objectives
Why do I care about time ?
• Human time is critical to the enterprise
• Systems performance affects business goals
• “Time is money”
• Performance improvement means doing things faster
Performance is always and only about time

Tuning - Objectives
Response Time = Work done (service time) + Waiting for work (wait time)
Each server process is typically in one of three states:
• Idle: Waiting for something to do (sleeping)
• Running code: Using the CPU or in a run queue
• Waiting: blocked
• For some resource to become available
• For a requested activity to complete
If service time and/or wait time is high, it will directly impact the total
response time

Tuning - Objectives
1. Reactive tuning
• Firefighter
2. Proactive tuning
• Plan, Do, Check, Act

Pareto Principle (80/20 rule)
“The minority of causes, inputs, or efforts usually produces a majority
of the results”
Top Foreground Events by Total Wait Time
SQL ordered by CPU Time
SQL ordered by User I/O Wait
SQL ordered by buffer gets
SQL ordered by physical reads
SQL ordered by Executions

Real-time analysis – Snapper
Snapper – Tanel Poder
• Realtime session monitor
• No installation needed
• Snaps v$session etc, reports the difference
Arguments
1. Mode (ash, stat, custom)
2. Seconds to run
3. Number of runs
4. All or filter on v$session (ex: username = scott or sid=51)

Real-time analysis – Snapper

Real-time analysis – MOATS 2.0

Real-time analysis – Web-ASH

Real-time analysis – TFA(ORATOP)

Historic Performance
Statspack
• Shipped on 8i (8.1.6) and beyond
• diagnostic tool for instance-wide performance problems
• also supports application tuning activities by identifying high-load SQL statements
• https://oracle-base.com/articles/8i/statspack-8i

Historic Performance
TUNAS360
• (TUN)ing with (A)ctive (s)essions
• requires no installation and no parameter when executed
• it observes the workload for few minutes and then collects a set of reports on such
load
• Run @tunas360.sql
EDB360
• edb360 is a free to use tool to perform an initial assessment of an Oracle database
• pre-check: @sql/awr_ash_pre_check.sql
• Run: @edb360.sql N NULL
• Parameter 1: Oracle License Pack (required) - [ T | D | N ]
• Parameter 2: Custom edb360 configuration filename (optional) - 7a-7b

SQL Tuning
SQLHC (Oracle)
Run: @sqlhc.sql N 0vy6pt4krb3gm
• Parameter 1: [ T | D | N ] – If tuning/diagnostic/none packages are licensed.
• Parameter 3: SQL_ID
SQLd360 (mauro-pagano.com)
• helps to diagnose SQL statements performing poorly
• input one SQL statement and output a set of diagnostics files
• Installs nothing
• Run: @sqld360.sql 0vy6pt4krb3gm N
• Parameter 1: SQL_ID
• Parameter 2: [ T | D | N ] – If tuning/diagnostic/none packages are licensed.

SQL Tuning
SQLT (Oracle)
• helps to diagnose SQL statements performing poorly
• input one SQL statement and output a set of diagnostics files
• Oracle Diagnostic and/or the Oracle Tuning Packs enhances functionality to the SQLT tool.
• Installation
• cd sqlt/install
• sqlplus / as sysdba @sqcreate
Main methods
• XTRACT - if you know the SQL_ID or the HASH_VALUE of the SQL to be analyzed
• XECUTE - provides more detail than XTRACT, it executes the SQL being analyzed, then it produces a set of diagnostics files
• XTRXEC - This method combines the features of XTRACT and XECUTE. Actually, XTRXEC executes both methods serially
• XTRSBY - Use this method if you need to analyze a SQL executed on a Data Guard or stand-by read-only database.
You need to know the SQL_ID or the HASH_VALUE of the SQL to be analyzed.
• XPLAIN - This method is based on the EXPLAIN PLAN FOR command use dbms_xplan.display_cursor instead !*
• XPREXT - Use this method if you have used XTRACT and you need a faster execution of SQLT while disabling some SQLT features.
Script sqlt/run/sqltcommon11.sql shows which features are disabled.
• XPREXC - Use this method if you have used XECUTE and you need a faster execution of SQLT while disabling some SQLT features.
Script sqlt/run/sqltcommon11.sql shows which features are disabled.

SQL Tuning
Trace Events
10046 – extented trace
i. Level 0: no stats
ii. Level 1: enable standard SQL_TRACE
iii. Leve 4: Level 1 + bind variables
iv. Level 8: Level 1 + wait events
v. Level 12: Level 1 + bind + waits
ALTER SESSION SET sql_trace=TRUE;
ALTER SESSION SET EVENTS '10046 trace name context forever, level 8';
EXEC DBMS_SYSTEM.set_sql_trace_in_session(sid=>123, serial#=>1234, sql_trace=>TRUE);
ORADEBUG EVENT 10046 TRACE NAME CONTEXT FOREVER, LEVEL 12;
EXEC DBMS_SUPPORT.start_trace(waits=>TRUE, binds=>FALSE);

ii. DBMS_SQLDIAG.DUMP_TRACE
iii. ALTER SESSION SET EVENTS 'trace[rdbms.SQL_Optimizer.*][sql:cjk13xfm8ybh7]';
