Doug, not to butt in on this thread, but you can do this by placing a
"wrapper" around the jobs w/ another dbms_job.  Create a table called
PERFORMANCE_STATS or something and create a new procedure for each job that
inserts the sysdate (begin time) into the table, runs the job you want to
run, then inserts the sysdate again (end time) into the table.   I've used
this before w/ great success.

Sorry, I'm about ot leave for the day, so I couldn't be more precise.  Let
me know if you have any questions and I'll be more specific.

Rodd,

    What else is new!  I've sent many a query to Oracle, along similar
lines,
and gotten a 'boneheaded' reply, even on TARs.  You then have to get down
and
specific to finally get through the haze those guys work in, maybe it's a
hang-over (hung over from what I do not want to know).  Anyway I sent them a
query on saving how long a job running under DBMS_JOB takes.  All I got for
a
reply was that "they don't keep that data in the database".  Duh, I knew
that,
the question was how do I catch & keep it.  Basically I replied that I
wanted to
put a on update trigger on sys.job$ as "PL/SQL stuff".  Finally someone
replied
that you could not do that due to startup issues.  That's where it got left,
real smart.  I'm now working on a package to do it for me.  Looks like I'll
have
to modify a lot of snapshot jobs.
