Hi, dba friends:
        
        I trussed some process execution in my system, and get result like:

oracle@main-db1$truss -c -p 3995 
^Csyscall seconds calls errors 
read .47 6963 
write .48 6555 
lseek .01 402 
kill .00 2 
times .61 25964 
semsys .01 44 
sigprocmask .00 92 
context .00 23 
yield .00 52 
setitimer .01 46 
pread .04 162 
                ---- --- --- 
sys totals: 1.63 40305 0 
usr time: 11.89 
elapsed: 129.88 


        Also, from somewhere , i see someone's trick about xdual vs dual, and i did a 
benchmark:
        with dual:
SQL> select * from v$mystat where statistic#=12;

       SID STATISTIC#      VALUE
---------- ---------- ----------
        17         12      19907

Elapsed: 00:00:00.00
SQL>  declare mydate date;
  2   begin  for x in 1..1000000 loop select sysdate into mydate from dual; end loop; 
end;
  3  /

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

Elapsed: 00:05:32.08
SQL> select * from v$mystat where statistic#=12;

       SID STATISTIC#      VALUE
---------- ---------- ----------
        17         12      39830


        and with Xdual:

select * from v$mystat where statistic#=12;


       SID STATISTIC#      VALUE
---------- ---------- ----------
        15         12          7
 declare mydate date;
 begin  for x in 1..1000000 loop select sysdate into mydate from xdual; end loop; end;
/


PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

Elapsed: 00:03:34.00
select * from v$mystat where statistic#=12;

       SID STATISTIC#      VALUE
---------- ---------- ----------
        15         12      12822
        
        Time elapsed reduced about 40%, and cpu utilization reduced from  39830 to 
12805.(less than half of the original value).
        I wonder if i can really replace the public synonym dual with my dual, I can 
reduce cpu usage significantly, right? But has anyone did this trick in production? 
any experience?
        Thanks.
