I'm ready for Jonathon's next book.
Along those lines, I think Amazon is going to start charging me for
frequent searches to see if your book is available for pre-order yet.

High BCHR is not *necessarily* bad, as Zhu Chao says. But, a systemwide
BCHR
in excess of 95% or so is often an indication of one or more
inefficiencies
that can result in greatly improved performance if corrected:
For more information, see my "Why a 99% buffer cache hit ratio is *not*
ok",
and perhaps Jonathan will tell you how to access his "The database
gets
better but the metrics look worse" article that he presented at IOUG.

Hi,stephane,
Though BCHR tuning method is widely critiqued, high buffer cache
hit
ratio is not necessary bad either, right?
Maybe high cache hit ration and v$bh with a lot of free/cr block
means
too big data buffer.
Here is an example of too big data buffer:
15:29:44 SQL> select /*+rule*/ status,count(*) from v$bh group by status;
STATU COUNT(*)
----- ----------
cr 55120 free 54656 scur 17696 xcur 24549
4 rows selected.
Elapsed: 00:00:01.32
While in another database with large sga,I think this buffer cache
is
not too big:
15:27:05 perfstat_at_BIDDB.EACHNET.COM> select /*+rule*/ status,count(*)
from
v$bh group by status;
STAT COUNT(*)
cr 11162
read 1
xcur 1037413
