Not sure what exactly you are asking here but one way of sizing the multiple buffer pools is to look at V$DB_CACHE_ADVICE view.
The following is from the 9i performance tuning manual V$DB_CACHE_ADVICE can be used to size all pools configured on an instance. Make the initial cache size estimate, run the representative workload, then simply query the V$DB_CACHE_ADVICE view for the pool you want to use. For example, to query data from the KEEP pool: SELECT size_for_estimate, buffers_for_estimate , estd_physical_read_factor, estd_physical_reads FROM V$DB_CACHE_ADVICE WHERE name = 'KEEP' AND block_size = (SELECT value FROM V$PARAMETER WHERE name = 'db_block_size') AND advice_status = 'ON'; John -----Original Message----- [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 23 July 2003 13:17 To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L when configuring multiple buffer pools in oracle9i , how are lru_latches set. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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).
