Anything looking resolutely optimistic. Seriously, it means nothing. A database is not 'performant' per se, it's just layers of software easing the coding work to access and concurrently update data stored in file (sorry to be so down to earth). If developers have done a bad job, it will be slow, but do not blame the database. If you are attempting to manage terabytes of data on a second-hand machine which was an entry-level server 5 years ago, do not expect miracles either. The best you can do is provide 'availability' charts, showing when your database was up - you can getr this from the alert.log file. And check V$SQLAREA to get performance-killers - bad queries, that is. This is your insurance policy when your boss will come back to you saying 'users complain about DB performance' (IMHO it must already be the case, s/he wouldn't have thought about a report otherwise).
