Re: (long and boring) SQL AREA and LIBARARY CACHE size?

An expert is the one who fully understands all of the important
relationships between different parts of a system, I have a long way to go
for getting there.

But my sources are Oracle docs, Ixora, Internet, few training materials and
of course Oracle server itself with awesome tracing and debugging abilities.

  just
  one big free chunk as well, but starts shrinking as space requests

  from it. One space request might result in multiple allocated chunks,
  if
  there's not enough free space in one memory extent for example.
 
  When a new chunk is allocated, the allocator will specify size and
  type of
  chunk it wants:
  - permanent type is permanent, unpinnable and unfreeable chunk.
  Permanent
  chunks exist until the whole heap is deallocated.
  - freeable type chunks can explicitly be freed by allocator (there's
  also
  special type of freeable chunks, called freeable with a mark, which
  can be
  freed implicitly, depending on memory usage in heap)
  - recreatable type chunks are pinned (in use) right after
  allocation and
  they can't be freed until they are explicitly unpinned.
 
  So, when allocating a recreatable type chunk, first freelists are
  searched
  for suitably sized free chunks. A heap freelist actually consists of
  255
  different lists, one for each size range of free chunks (smallest
  size range
  starts from 16 bytes, largest is about 64k+). This allows the
  freelist to be
  scanned faster. When no exactly matching free chunk is found, the
  next
  largest will be taken and is split. The leftover free chunk is placed
  to
  appropriate range in freelist. Memory allocations  deallocations in
  shared
  pool are protected by shared pool latch (by shared pool child latch
  starting
  from 9i - you can separate shared pool to several heaps for better
  concurrency in 9i).  AFAIK, Oracle is also able to coalesce adjacent
  free
  chunks when they're freed.
 
  When a recreatable chunk is allocated, it is marked as pinned -
  meaning
  currently in use. Thus noone can free it until it is explicitly
  unpinned by
  it's allocator (for example, several chunks might be pinned in shared
  pool
  during SQL parse and execution, but get unpinned right after the
  statement
  has finished). Here comes the LRU list into play. When a recreatable
  chunk
  is unpinned first time, it is put into MRU end of *transient* LRU
  list,
  since Oracle doesn't know whether it's needed ever again. When it is
  pinned
  next time, then of course it's taken off from LRU list at first, but
  the
  chunk itself is marked recurrent and is put in *recurrent* LRU list
  when
  unpinned again.
  (Note that I'm not sure how this LRU list internal structure looks
  like,
  whether there are really two LRU lists for each heap or is there a
  single
  one with two ends).
 
  Now, when a new space request is done, first freelists are scanned,
  but if
  there is no sufficient space there, transient LRU list is scanned and
  if big
  enough unpinned recreatable chunk is found, it is freed and returned
  to free
  list.
  Ok, but what happens if no suitable chunk is found from neither
  freelists
  nor LRU list? Oracle will then release hidden free space, which is
  allocated as permanent chunk during startup and is not in any
  freelists. The
  reason behind that might be that it is good to have less available
  memory
  during database startup, dictionary cache population and various
  applications initialization operations - that way more transient
  recreatable
  chunks can be reused and LRU lists don't get that long and there's
  less
  fragmentation in shared pool before real work starts. Long LRU and
  freelists are one reason for shared pool latch contention, that's why
  one
  should consider reducing of shared pool in case of this latch problem
  instead of usual more memory is better approach (as mentioned
  above, in 9i
  it's possible to split shared pool into several heaps to improve
  concurrency).
 
  And if even hidden memory is used up, then we get ORA-4031.

operations

 from this (and as per the docs) i understand that sql area is a subset

 perhaps,what subset means is:

 is my understanding correct, Tanel ?

Hi Manoj,

to be frank : need to know more basic stuff before i peep into X$ tables.
let me get good at fundamentals (a lot to be read  explored) first.
later i can join u to explore about X$ stuff ;)

 Hi Manoj,

 this is the statistics i got from one of my instance.
sql area 225 MB
library cache   112 MB

 I was also confused as u were [ i didn't notice this so far ].
 but reading the replies of Tanel  Steve once again:

 tanel
 But what Steve meant (please correct me if I'm wrong), is that operations
 on
 sql areas are managed by library cache structures (library cache latch,
KGL
 manager, lib cache hash table, etc), so sql area is dependent on library
 cache, despite the fact they both have memory allocated directly from
 shared pool.
 /tanel

 from this (and as per the docs) i understand that sql area is a subset of
 library cache.
 perhaps,what subset means is:
  in terms of the control library cache has over sql area and not in terms
 of memory allocated.
 is my understanding correct, Tanel ?

 steve
 My best guess at the moment is that when new recreatable chunks are first
 unpinned,
 they go onto the transient list, and then when they have been reused, they
 go back
 onto the recurrent list.

How the ORACLE distribute and mange the size of variouse component in

There should be some criteria on which it disribute its toatl available

Steve Adams/Jonathan, do you have any about these?

Also are there any way to control the number and type  of chunks in

If these can be manage I hope that lots of seriouse problem related to

RE: SQL AREA and LIBARARY CACHE size?

2003-09-25 Thread Steve Adams
Hi Manoj,

Although the stats are confused, the SQL area is in fact a subset of the
library cache. Cursors are cached in the library cache as namespace 0.

You can exercise limited control over the memory usage by marking objects
for keeping with DBMS_SHARED_POOL.KEEP. Otherwise, the retention of chunks
and thus the relative size of these and other shared pool areas depends
entirely how recently objects have been used, because they all share the
same LRU mechanisms (although there is an additional subordinate LRU
mechanism for the dictionary cache).

Hi Manoj,

Although the stats are confused, the SQL area is in fact a subset of the
library cache. Cursors are cached in the library cache as namespace 0.

You can exercise limited control over the memory usage by marking objects
for keeping with DBMS_SHARED_POOL.KEEP. Otherwise, the retention of chunks
and thus the relative size of these and other shared pool areas depends
entirely how recently objects have been used, because they all share the
same LRU mechanisms (although there is an additional subordinate LRU
mechanism for the dictionary cache).

As I understand SQL area is a subset of library cache which is a subset of
shared pool.

Taking advantage the opportunity that Steve is here, I'd like to ask how
does Oracle distinguish between recurrent and transient chunks? Is this
hardcoded, that certain types of chunks go to transient end of LRU list and
others go to rcr end or is this based on some kind of touch count as well,
like in buffer cache LRU list?

 I had doubt that why I asked you fine people.

Yes as far doc. and references are concerned, all clearly say that sql area
is subset of library cache.
but  my doubt is due to size of these two components in shared pool.
it is Library cache which may be subset of SQL area which intern subset of
shared pool.

If it is not then  subset will  be larger than set. Which is not possible.
Please confirm with your  database that what are size of LIBRARY CACHE and
SQL AREA?
In my system size of library cache is approx 48 mb and sql area 417 mb.

RE: SQL AREA and LIBARARY CACHE size?

2003-09-25 Thread Khedr, Waleed
From 9.2 doc:

Shared Pool
The shared pool portion of the SGA contains three major areas: library
cache, dictionary cache, buffers for parallel execution messages, and
control structures.
 

The total size of the shared pool is determined by the initialization
parameter SHARED_POOL_SIZE. The default value of this parameter is 8MB on
32-bit platforms and 64MB on 64-bit platforms. Increasing the value of this
parameter increases the amount of memory reserved for the shared pool.

Library Cache
The library cache includes the shared SQL areas, private SQL areas (in the
case of a multiple transaction server), PL/SQL procedures and packages, and
control structures such as locks and library cache handles.

Shared SQL areas are accessible to all users, so the library cache is
contained in the shared pool within the SGA.


Regards,

Waleed

Re: SQL AREA and LIBARARY CACHE size?

2003-09-25 Thread Tanel Poder
Well, if you look it from memory allocation point of view, then during
startup, a heap in size of shared_pool_size is allocated for shared pool and
all memory allocations for library cache, sql area, pl/sql mpcode, KGL
library cache manager structures, etc, are made from the same shared pool
heap (providing that only one heap is configured). So different memory
chunks are mixed up in the shared_pool, there is no such mechanism, which
divides shared pool to sql part and library cache object part or
similar. Only exceptions I can think of are shared pool reserved area and
also I remember something about heap manager hiding half of shared pool
for startup duration.

v$sgastat just shows you the sums of chunk sizes for different types of
objects.

But what Steve meant (please correct me if I'm wrong), is that operations on
sql areas are managed by library cache structures (library cache latch, KGL
manager, lib cache hash table, etc), so sql area is dependent on library
cache, despite the fact they both have memory allocated directly from shared
pool.

Tanel.

Hi Tanel,

There was a note in the bug database back in 7.1 days that suggested that it
was hard coded based on the chunk type, and so that's what I wrote in my
book.

However, I fear that that might have been wrong. At least it is in recent
versions. It is not hard to set up a test in which you can see chunks moving
from the transient to recurrent list. My best guess at the moment is that
when new recreatable chunks are first unpinned, they go onto the transient
list, and then when they have been reused, they go back onto the recurrent
list.
