I actually build a testcase for this and it still failed on 9.2 without any patches. It is supposed to be fixed in some later patch. I don't have the patches
-----Original Message----- Anjo Kolk Sent: Monday, January 05, 2004 6:49 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Cursor 0 also happens in oracle due to session switching (multiple sessions in the same process), oracle apps uses that but it also could happen with certain other application servers (haven't investigated it). Anjo. -----Original Message----- Boris Dali Sent: Monday, January 05, 2004 3:59 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Thanks, Cary. Could you elaborate what do you mean by "wait events associated with COMMIT processing"? Why does Oracle need this "exchange of messages" with the client (well, with the app server really in my case of a 3-tier deployment) to perform a commit? In any event, as I described earlier in my case I think Cursor #0 doesn't fall in neither of the two uses you mentioned. Bug 2425312 is RPC related as I understand. I don't work distributed (single DB) and app server (and clients - thin) don't have their own SQL engine, so all SQL processing is happening strictly on the DB server. So this doesn't seem to apply to me. And I see Cursor #0 used with no commits/rollbacks as part of one Oracle transaction. I see these WAIT #0 flying back and forth between DB and the app server sometimes 20 times just before stored procs are called and I can't figure out why. Another bug? Thank you, Boris Dali. --- Cary Millsap <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Boris, > > Cursor #0 seems reserved for two special uses: (1) > wait events > associated with COMMIT processing (also, of course, > ROLLBACK and > SAVEPOINT), and (2) wait events associated with > dbcalls not instrumented > because of bug 2425312. > > > Cary Millsap > Hotsos Enterprises, Ltd. > http://www.hotsos.com > > Upcoming events: > - Performance Diagnosis 101: 1/27 Atlanta > - SQL Optimization 101: 2/16 Dallas > - Hotsos Symposium 2004: March 7-10 Dallas > - Visit www.hotsos.com for schedule details... > > > -----Original Message----- > Boris Dali > Sent: Thursday, January 01, 2004 10:29 AM > To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L > > Thanks a lot for your reply, Cary. > > One follow-up question.
