So far, I did not see what is the specific performance problem here. I support one of the five warehouses that has over 300 users and we implemented dedicated servers but we ended up with heavy disk swap because application had external call procedure which gets Unix timestamp from Oracle. This resulted in holding/ never releasing the Unix processes. So we switched to MTS and requested application to use Oracle timestamp instead.
Our MTS parameters: mts_servers=4 Start up 4 servers dispatcher=10 mts_max_servers=20 shared pool=360mb Performance is as good as dedicated servers. I implemented on all other four warehouses. Our MTS has been running for over 8 months now. -----Original Message----- Sent: Thursday, June 27, 2002 7:33 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Michael , I have tried all of them , but still performance is very bad. When switch to dedicated mode I get ora:04030.. Have you ever switched to MTS and seen the same performance , I wonder if you are sure about MTS performance is good. What ever I did did not give the same performance as dedicated connections even not approached.
