Hi Gurus,

Would any body through some idea on the causes of having a low buffer cache hit ratio.

any of the following could possibly be an issue?

1)Tables are truncated and reloaded frequently
2)New data is being loaded
3)We drop mass amounts of data, then rebuild every night.

Thanks,
Venkat

Of course your buffer cache could be too small. To get everything into the buffer cache it would have to be as big as the database itself which you obviously can't generally do. Also remember that full table scans don't leave their data in the buffer cache (else you'd fill it up too quickly).
