Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Hot indexes
When this question was asked earlier, one suggestion was to capture =
samples
of the SQL in v$sql, then run it through EXPLAIN PLAN to find SQL =
statements
that are using indexes in this tablespace. I don't recall the success =
or
failure of this method being posted.

Subject: Re: Hot indexes
If it really is a problem (somebody complaining, devices being=20 overloaded, whatever), then you would need to track which user(s)/apps=20 issued the LIO calls to the datablock adresses of this tablespace.
Tracking of individual LIO calls including the file number, block =
number=20
and number of blocks is externalized in v$session_wait and in 10046=20
trace files (excluding exotic direct memory access methods and probably =
some decent 3rd party tools).
So putting on 10046 level 8 trace on your whole instance will show it,=20 but will require at least 42 GB of storage for the trace files and 42=20 days to interpret the results afterwards :).
