If you are using PL/sql then try to reference the sequence next value in the update/insert statement itself. Aso the update/insert can return the value of the sequence to a PL/SQL memory variable.
regards, Waleed -----Original Message----- To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Sent: 4/21/02 1:23 PM I did two statspack snapshots, one hour and forty minutes apart. Then I generated a report and loaded it into oraperf.com. In the report I saw that the two SQL statements that where executed the most times where: Select xxxx.currval from dual; Select xxxx.nextval from dual;. Each one was executed about 90,000 times with 5 buffer gets per execution. The net result was about 950,000 buffer get for nextval and currval. My question is: Why should there be about 5 buffer gets per execution?
