Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Really Huge Numbers
We have a very small (1.7M) database that is accessed
through a web application. This application was once
a spreadsheet until someone in marketing thought it
would be cool to put it on the web.
The entire database is in memory and is used exclusively for queries. It has been up since 2/8/2004. There are no known performance issues but here are some really large numbers:
no work consistent read gets
18,446,744,052,251,242,798
similar numbers for enqueue requests and releases, consistent gets, sorts(memory). Sorts(disk) is zero.
The code is probably really inefficient, but everyone is happy. It's just that some of the performance numbers are monsterous.
