Alex,
I think you are trying to not be incredibly rude?
How rude of you!

|| I disagree wholeheartedly with this statement Alex. How can
|| you make this
|| statement without knowing the situation? (You seem to be
|| becoming the
|| resident troller in this group! Sorry, but it does appear that way.)
||
|| In spite of all evidence and repeated warnings, management
|| often does not
|| allow the most reasonable "solution" - preferring instead to
|| play ostrich
|| and simply throw hardware at the problem. Then one day even
|| this isn't
|| enough or it becomes prohibitively expensive and they want
|| to hold someone
|| else responsible for their own bad decisions - and the all too common
|| scapegoat hunting expedition begins! That is when I usually
|| forward to the
|| "hunters" the same email that I sent them three years ago
|| (and two years ago
|| and a year ago , and six months ago, ...) analyzing the problem and
|| proposing a reasonable solution - with attached proof (e.g.
|| tkprof output
|| showing how rewriting a few problematic queries can reduce
|| CPU utilization
|| by a factor of 72 and LIO by a factor of 6200! A real life
|| example - that
|| stayed like this for over three and a hlf years!).
