RE: NO ANALYZE STATS FOR TABLE
Thank gurus, Will take a sample rows. -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, October 15, 2002 6:34 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Moses - Ah, another clue. Yes, no results provided until the analyze completes. Your problem isn't getting results, but getting the analyze to complete. Analyze also sorts the data, so your TEMP file is probably getting hit like crazy also. Kill that command. Try again with ANALYZE TABLE A ESTIMATE STATISTICS. There is no reason to analyze each and every row in an 8 million row table. Just take a sample. Read the documentation on ANALYZE and decide what type of sample is appropriate for your table. Personally, I favor analyze a fixed number of rows, having studied statistics in the past. The best would be to do a baseline analysis, note the statistics reported and how long it took to complete. Then increase the estimate, note the new statistics and the completion time. After a few tries, you'll notice the statistics aren't changing much. You will decide the best cost/benefit tradeoff between number of rows and the results obtained. On a smaller table, you can perform this experiment in reverse, first doing a complete analysis, then comparing the results with varying sizes of estimates. Also, depending on your Oracle version, check out DBMS_STATS. Oracle is now focusing its efforts on that package. Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc.

RE: NO ANALYZE STATS FOR TABLE
You will see statistics only after the ANALYZE is completed. 8 million records certainly shouldn't take 24hours, though. Try doing an ANALYZE with a SAMPLE or ESTIMATE. Better, use DBMS_STATS.

Re: NO ANALYZE STATS FOR TABLE
How do you know you have no statistics? What does select table_name, num_rows, last_analyzed from user_tables; give you? Also, setting TIMED_STATISTICS and SQL_TRACE has nothing to do with running ANALYZE TABLE... -Joe --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi gurus, > > I have analyzed my table A but I get no stats for the table.
