Hi Steve,

I tested it on Oracle 8.1.6.3 (Solaris 2.6).

Parse_calls gets incremented every time the sql gets executed but the
version_count continues to be 1.

Regards,

Waleed

Hi Nuno (and list),

Changing 'optimizer_index_caching' and 'optimizer_index_cost_adj' does seem
to
inhibit cursor sharing under 8i. You may want to try the following test
under
8.0 and see if it is any different.

        SQL> create table t as select * from dual;

        Table created.

        SQL> analyze table t compute statistics;

        Table analyzed.

        SQL> select count(*) from t;

          COUNT(*)
        ----------
                 1

        SQL> select parse_calls, version_count from v$sqlarea where sql_text
= 'select
count(*) from t ';

        PARSE_CALLS VERSION_COUNT
        ----------- -------------
                  1             1

        SQL> show parameters optimizer_index

        NAME                                 TYPE    VALUE
        ------------------------------------ -------
------------------------------
        optimizer_index_caching              integer 0
        optimizer_index_cost_adj             integer 100

        SQL> alter session set optimizer_index_caching = 1;

        Session altered.

        SQL> select count(*) from t;

          COUNT(*)
        ----------
                 1

        SQL> select parse_calls, version_count from v$sqlarea where sql_text
= 'select
count(*) from t ';

        PARSE_CALLS VERSION_COUNT
        ----------- -------------
                  2             2

        SQL> alter session set optimizer_index_cost_adj = 99;

        Session altered.

        SQL> select count(*) from t;

          COUNT(*)
        ----------
                 1

        SQL> select parse_calls, version_count from v$sqlarea where sql_text
= 'select
count(*) from t ';

        PARSE_CALLS VERSION_COUNT
        ----------- -------------
                  3             3

        SQL>

Now, start
playing with OPTIMIZER_INDEX_CACHING and OPTIMIZER_INDEX_COST_ADJ.

Incidentally, these can be set at session level but to get them picked
up you need to do a FLUSH SHARED_POOL.  Which kinda defeats the
purpose of making them dynamic in the first place, Mr. ORACLE?  Or am
I missing something obvious?  I can imagine someone doing this at the
beginning of each batch job and flushing the shared pool each time!
Jeez, some database coders don't have a clue about the real world, do
they?...
