Hi all,
Everyone is recommending DBMS_STATS to be used for computing the
statistics.
But even after specifying the parallel option , DBMS_STATS is taking lots of time !
in comparison to Analyze...
In case of tables with a million records the query just hangs when i use the stats
package...
Can anybody tell me whts happening ?
Regards
kesh

Sorry JP, I should have clarified that DBMS_STATS is the way to go, when on
a 9i or above release. One of the simple factors being that ANALYZE is being
deprecated.. There seemed to be a number of bugs/quirks, whatever you want
to call them, in certain 8.1.x versions, which are now fixed within 9i..
There's a number of threads about the issues, available in the list archives
(you can find them at http://www.faqchest.com), which I dug around - as I
remembered seeing a post by Connor McDonald, where he gave away an alternate
script to gather stats, here's the mail:

I think the general consensus is that DBMS_STATS is quicker. I've never
personally done any comparative benchmarks to corroborate this sheep
following attitude though.. ;)

Mark

Thanx a lot Mark.
Sure , your code has given me a starting point.
let me change accordingly to use DBMS_STATSe and give a try :-)
So,can i conclude that DBMS_STATS is better than ANALYZE ?!
Someone over the list mentioned that DBMS_STATS is slower.
is it so ? What is your opinion regarding this ?!
just curious to know !
Regards,
Jp.
