And these would be CPM (commits per minute) and RPM (rollbacks per minute). If you really want a transaction, you have to code it yourself, otherwise all you can get is CPM and RPM. If your transactions_per_minute ( or commits_per_minute) is low use this handy script to bump it up. create

I've been asked to provide value for the Transactions Per Minute going through our primary OLTP production database. I believe I can use deltas in SCN values to measure transactions which do INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE and then COMMIT; Is there any way to measure/count the number of SELECTs which

Charlie, I understand a transaction as a succession of SQL statements between two successive COMMITs or ROLLBACKs - you will find inside V$SYSSTAT how many COMMITs and ROLLBACKs were issued. If you are interested, besides transactions proper, in the number of statements executed, then have

Well, as you are well aware of, you cannot measure without impacting. I know of the following methods: 1) Turn on auditing, count all transactions from dba_audit_trail table within a day and divide by the number of minutes in 9 hours. That will give you an average TPM number during the working

Logminer has been of use in looking at past activity as far as INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE and then COMMIT;. Looking at a day of lofs we have been able to measure activity to all of our tables, indexes and queues and as been very helpful in giving us infor we need for future capacity planning.

Charlie, What is the perceived relevance of gaining this information? You would be much better off correlating statistics such as overall non idle wait time and database workload (# Users, Ion's/CPU etc...) to actual business functions the database is performing (invoices, sales orders, etc...).

If that is what this is for, the formula is very simple. TPM = x*42 where x is a number sufficient to justify the really cool hardware system you want. Mladen Gogala wrote: On 01/28/2004 12:34:26 PM, Post, Ethan wrote: Charlie, What is the perceived relevance of gaining this information?

I would say that it depends on the system. If we are talking about a stock trading system, then TPM is very important as is transaction-time-to-completion. For a data warehouse, this may be absolutely meaningless. Of course, does TPM describe the width of the database pipe or it's depth? In the
