Hi,

Does anyone know how to determine how many times an index has been used or if it has been used at all? I have seen previous attempts by taking snapshots of v$sqlarea and then automating an explain plan and extracting the information that way. I would have thought that there must be an x$ table that records this information somewhere?

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
