As a friendly reminder, when debunking myths, I suggest we keep sober and never
go overboard. The recently popular formula to get an arbitrary hit ratio is not
what a database in normal usage naturally gets. Unless a mischievous developer
plays a prank, hit ratios are still useful to some extent in checking database
health, although other indicators such as wait events should be given a greater
weight.
