I'm studying for the 9i Performance Tuning exam, too. I'm glad to hear about the inaccuracies in this book. I have this book and the Oracle Press book by Pack. I also have Oracle Online Learning and I think I will stick more closely to that. Also, hopefully the Self Test Software gives a good indication of the type of questions on the exam, or the focus of them.

Is the test the same way? If so do they improve it in 9i? The book is loaded with all types of hit ratios, discussions about committing frequently to IMPROVE performance, and other garbage. anyone know the guys who wrote this book? I dont want to write their names. Did they just write it to the test? -- 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).
