Jared,
 
Are you talking about yapppack? I've been using that for a while (nice display. Though like statspack it is system wide so I usually just look for high level stuff and changes). Not aware of a patch though.
 
With most peoplesoft applications I have seen, the bottlenecks aren't database related, though I still need to get all appropriate data. That means application server, OS (NT for app server, Sun for Oracle), web server,  ... stuff too. I'm still trying to find what numbers the tool itself gathers, and if/how it analyzes the stuff. In the meantime, I've been reviewing some of the papers on orapub (i.e. Ratio Modeling, Predicting Computing System Capacity and Throughput).
 
Thanks.
 
Henry

As the ultimate indicator of performance is response time, you might like to investigate YAPP
at http://www.miracleas.dk/.  The data generated gives a good indicator of response time from
a database perspective.

If you use it, ask me for the patch.

We are planning on running some stress tests on a PeopleSoft/Oracle/Solaris
system starting next week (using LoadRunner). I have never gone through a
formalized stress test before (most of my stress is brought about informally).
So far I am planning to gather statspack information, and periodically get
vmstat from the OS. Is there anything else that I should collect? Thanks for the
help.

Henry
