Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: how to deal with this situation? truncate table + statistics
Syed,
I believe that if a table is not analyzed the optimiser defaults to
assume 100 rows. That is not what you want.
>From what you are saying bar the first few minutes of trading there will
always be rows in your table and it will almost certainly more than 100.
What I suggest is that you go for the median (or average) point and analyze your table at lunch-time one day when there should be about 50K rows in leave the stats there as you truncate the table each morning.
You really need to experiment with different execution plans to see what impact the various permutations of statistics have on your sql.
I don't know what version you are on but does 10G have anything that allows a table to be analyzed without taking a lock out?

Subject: how to deal with this situation? truncate table + statistics
Hello List,
Well, I have a little bit tricky or I can say confused situation. We have database for shares tradining. Beginning of every day, a couple of tables will be truncted and we analyze the schema. The situation is, when we truncate and analzye those tables,
statitiscs are updated as rum_rows=0, and blocks =0. The entire day, about 100,000 records comes in each of those truncated tables. But, for the optimizer, the data dictionary statistics provides nothing,when there are records coming every second, we dont re-analyze again, i.e. old statistics available to the optimizer. How can we deal with this situation? Is it better to collect the statistics before table get truncated, so that statistics available for those tables to help otpimizer? If so, lets say, if our num_rows says 100,000 and truncated the table, when records start coming in a table, optimizer assumed that this table has 100,000 records, may be the empty table starts filling from 10 records and keep growing.? What is the best way to deal this?
