Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Suggestions Needed: Latch free - library cache
Yong,
In case you missed it, see my previous reply to Jonathan's mail. I'll expand my test case and see what I can come up with for the other cases you motion.

It would be good if Oracle could break SQL parse down into not just hard
and
soft, not just hard-soft-softer (Tom Kyte's wording), but different
levels.
Oracle may have to work slightly harder to update these new statistics
but the
benefit for OLTP databases is huge.
Other than the four parse invocations in your message, I think we can
add one
between your first and second: Invoke a parse to create a new version of
the
same cursor (same in the sense of same address and hash) due to either
bind
threshold change or execution plan change. In fact, these two types of
changes
may be broken down to two statistics. Looking at the columns in
v$sql_shared_cursor, I'm afraid we may need much more statistics?
To the OP: Other people point out common reasons for library cache latch
contention. A less common reason is extensive use of public synonyms. If
that's
the reason, you also see row cache objects latch contention.

Code that issues a parse call may:
Invoke the whole parse/optimize cycle
Invoke a permissions cycle on an existing statement
Invoke a search and execute cycle on an existing statement with
valid
permission
Invoke a 'this is where it is and I know I've got permission, so
just do
it' cycle
...
NOTE: This description is probably not complete
and I'd welcome any corrections and refinements
that anyone can supply.
