Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: DBA_EXTENTS problem
Yes, that's bad. You have analyzed the data dictionary tables. You need to delete the statistics for them.

I have recently changed the analyze script. Earliar it was dbms_utility.analyze_schema(...) statement, It is now changed to dbms_stats.gather_database_stats();
Is this a problem?
The response time for select count(*) from dba_extents is also 30
minutes.
It is not specific to any table.
Thanks,

that's interesting... since the data dictionary is NOT analyzed, setting
optimizer_mode=choose would force the query against dba_extents to RULE
which it
what it is supposed to be doing anyway, Hm. The question now is, what is
the
optimizer_mode set to when the problem happens? Did any of the data
dictionary
tables get accidentally analyzed? And -- how many extents are in use in
the
database? Could it just be a symptom of missized tables and indexes so
that
the
number of extents is way high?
Although Oracle is *supposed* to allow unlimited extents, in practice
anything
higher than 4096 extents in an object (at least in 8i) tends to slow
things
down.

Babu,
We had a similiar problem, and setting optimizer_mode = choose in our session solved it. Something to do with optimizer and DD access. Give that a try. I had the same problem with DBA_INDEXES and that fixed it.
hth,
Jack
