Did anyone at IOUG-A mention the two biggest jokes about The Buffer Cache Hit Ratio ? First that there are lots of buffer accesses that Oracle doesn't record in the statistics it gives you; and secondly that there are lots of buffer accesses that it does tell you about that have not yet been

John all, I just used the term, OWI. I do not claim to be the originator of this term. But I like it very much. As for the ratios go, I did not use the 'R' word(s) ;) in my short presentation. It was, however, mentioned in the session abstract to get attention. My sincere thanks to all who
