I recently heard about something called a Stored Outline that supposedly can
be used to lock the execution path that a query runs with. One of the uses
of this was apparently to aid people moving from rule to cost based
optimisation, where the rule execution path may be the better option to go
down.

Did/have you looked at these as an alternative to the hint? I am curious to
see if anybody has used this option and what feedback they may have?

Cheers

Mark

turning on cost-based is easy:  set the optimizer_mode parameter to choose
in your init.ora, stop and start your database and then analyze all your
tables.

HOWEVER (and this is a biggie) this will not automatically make all your
queries run faster. You will need to examine each and every query to see if
it needs to be rewritten to take advantage of CBO. In fact, sometimes there
are queries that run faster in rule-based, and I have had to include hints
in queries to force the optimizer to run rule.
