Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Tuning Query w/database link
I am trying to help a developer tune a query that uses a database link.
For testing purposes, I've broken the query down to the simple query
shown below. TEST_VIEW is a remote view that joins three tables, which
results in approximately 1 million rows. The query that Oracle passes
to the remote database never has a predicate - it is always 'select *
from test_view'. I have tried various hints, but I cannot get Oracle to
use a predicate in the remote query. The user has to wait 6 minutes (or
so) while the remote query pulls 1 million records to the local
database. If I execute an explain plan for 'select * from test_view
where a.alra_id=100001', an index is used an the query completes in
milliseconds. Any thoughts on how I can help this user, without
creating local snapshots of the tables?
select * from test_view_at_remotenode <mailto:j_at_remotenode> a,
project_accounting_costs b
where a.alra_id=b.source_id
and b.source_id=100001;
Both databases are 8.1.7.3 on Tru64. Both databases have statistics computed and the optimizer_mode=CHOOSE. I've tried various hints including DRIVING_SITE, FIRST_ROWS, ALL_ROWS, INDEX, etc. I also put a hint in the remote view.
Thanks,
Jay
