- Figure 9-14 shows an interesting situation in which a single fast CPU out-performs a system with 4 slower CPUs, for a certain condition; this is exactly the situation I am facing while testing the move of a DB (9.0.1.3.0) from a 2-processor (600 MHz) to a 4-processor (400 MHz) box and have been puzzling over reduced performance, even after playing with different degrees of parallel query and having twice as much memory for the DB on the 4-processor box
- I'm only into the book 100 pages and it's by far the most thorough treatment of SQL trace data I've ever seen- very deep stuff with thorough explanations and tables you can use
- the methods are logical and founded in the scientific method, something I have seen little of since I left a Ph.D. program in chemistry to work with databases 3 years ago- I can't wait to hit the queuing theory section
- the writing style is clear and confident

Out of stock !
UPS just delivered my copy of Cary's book to the office! Can't wait to read it, but first I plan to finish the books I'm currently reading:
- The Art and Science of Oracle Performance Tuning (Chris Lawson)
- Oracle SQL High-Performance Tuning (Guy Harrison)No telling when I'll get to finish Tom Kyte's new book, which from the first couple dozen pages appears to be excellent.
So many books, so little time...
