Hi, Unlike the gurus on the list, I'm just a programmer who happens to ensure the DB structure is correct/valid, should hold its ground if an external (read customer's) DBA goes through it with a microscope. Its not always possible to have a full time DBA suggesting the layout, and moreover, most of the programmers are expected to 'know' RBDMS anyway!
I was hoping if the gurus here can provide me a list of parameters to be taken into consideration (while doing the database design) to ensure that the phsycial database layout itself is optimized for performance. Or if anyone can just point me in the right direction, it'll help me a lot. Btw, Oracle has more than 200 initialization parameters, all affecting its working in some or the other way. Do the gurus keep all of them at their finger-tips?
