Naba,
Performance tuning is an 80/20 ruled operation. Regrettably it sounds like
you went to the 20% payback side first. In all of the years I've been a DBA I
have always gone into the SQL statements before touching the database. In our
case our PeopleSoft payroll application was running slow, like yours. The
culprit was an SQL statement that did a Cartesian product against the two
largest tables in the schema while crippling the indexes. OOPS!! Therefore, go
back and analyze the SQL. I'd be suprised if you could not reduce the run time
by 50% or more right there.

Hi all,
We have got a Payroll Application develeoped in-house.
It takes 30-34 Minutes to Run this Batch Application.
General feeling is - it should be able to process it
within 10-15 Minutes may be less than that.
I am to look into this problem and give a solution to it.
Steps I had followed as
1. Import the payroll user to another Oracle User in the same database.
2. Removed unnecessary Index , Put parallelism into few
tables by Alter table tab1 Parallel(DEGREE 5)
3. Analyze the tables with compute statistics;
4. Run the payroll without checking any inefficient SQL or
wrong programming logic in the those Packages( It has only
two Package in it no other stand alone Procedure or function).
Payroll under this new Oracle User runs in 22-24 Minutes, 6-9 Minutes
less. So, I asked Payroll Person to remove those unnecessary Index,
asked him to put parallelism into those tables which I had done.
He runs the Payroll with no Improvement at all. I asked again to
drop those table and recreate it with new storage parameter same
as the one created at New User. Still no visible Improvement.
At this stage every table in both user has same storage parameter,same
index ,and also analyzed. The question is why in One User
it runs in 22-24 Min and in another 30-34 Min ?
Now Please advice me what do I check or to do, so that the it time takes
to run comes down to 22-24 Min, same as the new user.
Oracle 8.1.4
Optimize goal : choose
Biggest table haiving record less than 60000 rows.
Thanks in Advance
