List,
This is not entirely an Oracle question, more related
to Solaris 8. We had some reports which run for 5 to
10 minutes and the unix process gone to sleep for an
hour before it woke up and finished. The Oracle
session showed that they are waiting for SQL message
from client. During the same period, there were a lot
of paging activity happening on the swap disk and the
Oracle database itself is not doing much. I remember
in Solaris 2.6, we have to set priority_paging to 1 in
/etc/system to improve paging performance, so Solaris
won't page out application executable. However, this
is Solaris 8, I just checked the documentation, we are
not suppose to set priority_paging. I am a bit
confuse, I am seeing the symptom of application code
being paged out but this problem seem to be fixed in
Solaris 8. Is anyone had any experience with paging
performance on Solaris 8?
