RE: Size of segment

2002-04-30 Thread Mark Leith

Shreepad,

There is no problem with a segment having more than 1 extent. It is a common
misconception (another of those Myths, if you please) that all tables and
indexes should reside in 1 extent, or less than 10 extents even. There is a
paper available from the web - that many say is the definitive word on
fragmentation of extents, called "How to stop defragmenting and start
living", written by Juan Loaiza (sp?) which a google search should easily
find..

The basics of this paper are thus:

You should have a set of three tablespaces (for data and indexes) that each
deal with a UNIFORM extent size, ranging through 160k, 5120k and 160M at the
tablespace level. When creating a new object (table or index), you should
determine how large the table/index is going to be, and create it in the
appropriate tablespace, without defining specific storage clauses at the
table level - therefore inheriting the Tablespace storage clauses as a
default (gaining the uniform extent size for all objects within the
tablespace). Of course, if you are already using LMTs (Locally Managed
Tablespaces) with uniform extent allocation, then the need to do this has
gone away.

Once a table/index reaches 1024 extents (much more than the myth of 1-10
extents), then the object should be considered for a move up to a larger
extent sized tablespace (and will still, by all accounts, take up 32 extents
from the start of it's life in the new tablespace anyway - if moved straight
away).

I would again recommend reading the paper above - it's been a while since I
had the chance to read it, and I'm not sure if it's been updated at all
(anybody?), but it has an absolute wealth of information!

HTH

Hi,
Thanks to all those who replied. Just clearing the structure.

I have Hp LVM and the tables and indexes are on different tablespaces and
different disks .

Since the growth pattern has changed drastically , the no of extents have
increased tremendously . Hence the need to

rebuild the indexes .

We plan to rebuild them into contiguous extents (only question being 1
extent or say 4-5 extents to take care of growth:--- 1 extent every 2
months )

  Will the performance differ if they are on 1 extent or 5 extents (
both being contiguous) ?

  thanks

RE: Size of segment

2002-04-30 Thread Hately Mike

Oh Shreepad, you've opened another can of worms there.   =)
You shouldn't see any performance difference between 1 extent and 5 extents
or more.
The best option for extent sizing in my opinion is to keep all extents
within a tablespace the same size. This increases the manageability of the
objects within it and eliminates honeycomb fragmentation.

Mike Hately

Ray,
The 2 things aren't at all synonymous; it's quite possible to split objects
across tablespaces while keeping them on one disk. You mean that one
requires the other and on the whole you're right.
I agree that sensibly you need to split them across tablespaces to achieve
disk separation but the point I was making was that the disk placement is
the important point rather than the tablespace name.


BTW This is how could you control the location of the index forcing it onto
a different disk without having a separate ts/datafile?
Mind you, I'll agree you'd have to be mad to do it.  =)   

  create tablespace disks_and index

Cool!

Would love to see this data, also, because it doesn't make any 
logical sense to me, unless the index and table ts are on the 
same disk, I suppose.

The improvement is more about putting them in different tablespaces that
reside on different physical disks, therefore sharing the I/O between the
disks, and having the disk heads searching concurrently, rather than
thrashing back and forth..

There is/was a recent and active discussion of this topic in the
Oracle Server Usenet forum.

While it has long been "recommended" that tables & indexes be placed
in separate tablespaces, the current conventional wisdom disputes the
claim that performance can/will be enhanced by separating data and
indexes into different tablespaces.

If anybody can produce recent benchmark results which shows that
separating index & data into different tablespaces improves performance,
I'd like to see the details behind the benchmark and the results.

RE: Size of segment

2002-04-29 Thread Hately Mike

Charlie,

I think conventional wisdom suggests splitting data and index onto separate
disks rather than separate tablespaces.
Just to start the unsubstantiated anecdotal evidence I've seen this help on
more occasions than I care to recall.
I'm the first to agree though that separating data and indexes into separate
tablespaces won't help if they're on the same disks. It will make them
easier to split in future though.

Mike Hately

in separate tablespaces, the current conventional wisdom disputes the
claim that performance can/will be enhanced by separating data and
indexes into different tablespaces.

If anybody can produce recent benchmark results which shows that
separating index & data into different tablespaces improves performance,
I'd like to see the details behind the benchmark and the results.

Hey and Another Thing there is No Performance Benift By Putting them on
different Tablespaces.

So For Easier Management the Original Poster can Put it in Different TBS and

You are taking a preformance hit having the indexes and tables in the same
tablespace, are you not?

There is/was a recent and active discussion of this topic in the
Oracle Server Usenet forum.

While it has long been "recommended" that tables & indexes be placed
in separate tablespaces, the current conventional wisdom disputes the
claim that performance can/will be enhanced by separating data and
indexes into different tablespaces.

If anybody can produce recent benchmark results which shows that
separating index & data into different tablespaces improves performance,
I'd like to see the details behind the benchmark and the results.

Sorry that I was not explicit .. If you are experiencing high Transactions
You need to put the Tables and Indexes on Different Tablespaces [ again
Uniformly Sized]

Physically No Extents, No Blocks are Contigous.. There is No Use in Bringing
the Entire Table 1 or 10 Extents. If you have Used PCTIncrease in your TBS
then Over Time Your Tables and Indexwes will be fragmented. 

My Suggestion would be to give Uniform sized Extents and move the table and
Index into that tablespace.

Hi,

I have  segments (Tables and indexes) which go into 500 MB -- 1 GB . I
intend to do a rebuild since they are fragmented.

Is it beneficial to have a single extent of 500 Mb or multiple extents are
ok  ?  (maybe 4 --5)

My contention is that so long as the extents are contiguous ( I could do a
rebuild) the number do not matter
so long as they are not too high.


Any suggestions ?


Thanks
