Key Recommendations
 Database Intense Applications Should Optimize :
– Data Model, Design & Structure
– SQL’s: Syntax, Correct Use of Optimizer, Hints, Joins, Indexes, and PLSQL
– Oracle9i DB: Separate Table space for indexes and data, Correct Table
Partitioning, Use of Materialized Views, bitmap indexes, Summary Tables,
Correct Size for Shared Pool and Max Open Cursors
– Analyze tables/indexes : dbms_stats.gather_schema_stats
– DB Connection Pooling
 Test and Test !! If you don’t, your users will
– Load Test – assume the worst case scenario
– Scenario/Case Test, Exceptions Test
 Upgrade to Latest Release of Oracle9iAS – Minimize patches
 Have identical environments in development, QA and production
 Upgrade RAM first -- then Hardware

21
Oracle9iAS PLSQL Tuning
 Pin most used procedures, functions, packages
 Caching PL/SQL calls greatly improves performance
 Eliminates additional network round trips and calls to the
database server




Can be invoked by making calls to the OWA_CACHE package
Single Sign-on Cookie Cache
Always Package procedures/functions together
DAD Connection Pooling

Oracle9iAS Configuration
 Get More Memory
– More Memory = More MOD’s
– 1 GB At least for Production Servers
 Reduce Logging Level – Reduce CPU & I/O Cost
– Only Log Errors
 Reduce Oracle 9iAS Directory Depth – Reduce Security Checks
 Update httpd.conf Default Settings
– HostNameLookup off
– Options FollowSymLinks rather than SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
– AllowOverride none
– MinSpareServers, MaxSpareServers
– MaxClients
– Disable unused MODs
 Increase “timeout” and “retry” configuration in Apache
– zone.properties: servlet.page.initArgs=requesttime=60
– JServ.conf: ApJServRetryAttempts
30, ApJServVMTimeout 20
