This parameter tells the optimizer how much weight to give to indexes when evaluating 
a query.  That's the short answer, it's really more complicated than that.  A client I 
have uses a value of 4 for this parameter.  This was arrived at using the old fashion 
method of changing the value and running some test queries and capturing timings for 
them.

Has any one messed with
optimizer_index_cost_adj
on 8.1.7     ??

The default is 100, but my boss thinks 10 is a better value for Cost based Opmtzr..
doesn't make any sense to me..  why would reducing the cost of using an
optimizer make it more CBO or go faster..   what if its a large table?

Is it a good strategy to reduce this value to 10 or so ..

any one played with this on a 30GB database ? or any other size db?

thanks, Bruce
