Anand, Just curious : Is there some test or other observation that you can share with the list about dbms_stats using 10% as a boundary for staleness? John Kanagaraj
Which version of Oracle are you using. In 8i you can set 'monitoring on' for the tables and use dbms_stats to analyze stale. (Though, I am getting error while using dbms_stats for the partitioned tables. So I have made a home made version to analyze stale). As per my calculations, package dbms_stats considers statistics stale if all DMLs affect more than 10% of number of rows. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: John Kanagaraj INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists -------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
