ASH and AWR Performance Tuning Scripts

Listed below are some SQL queries which I find particularly useful for performance tuning. These are based on the Active Session History V$ View to get a current perspective of performance and the DBA_HIST_* AWR history tables for obtaining performance data pertaining to a period of time in the past.

I would like to add that these queries have been customised by me based on SQL scripts obtained from colleagues and peers. So if I am infringing any copyright material let me know and I shall remove the same. Also If anyone has any similar useful scripts to contribute for use by the community do send it to me and I shall include the same on this page


Top Recent Wait Events

col EVENT format a60

select * from (
select active_session_history.event,
sum(active_session_history.wait_time +
active_session_history.time_waited) ttl_wait_time
from v$active_session_history active_session_history
where active_session_history.event is not null
group by active_session_history.event
order by 2 desc)
where rownum < 6

Top Wait Events Since Instance Startup

col event format a60

select event, total_waits, time_waited
from v$system_event e, v$event_name n
where n.event_id = e.event_id
and n.wait_class !='Idle'
and n.wait_class = (select wait_class from v$session_wait_class
 where wait_class !='Idle'
 group by wait_class having
sum(time_waited) = (select max(sum(time_waited)) from v$session_wait_class

Find The Main Database Wait Events In A Particular Time Interval

First determine the snapshot id values for the period in question.

In this example we need to find the SNAP_ID for the period 10 PM to 11 PM on the 14th of November, 2012.

select snap_id,begin_interval_time,end_interval_time
from dba_hist_snapshot
where to_char(begin_interval_time,'DD-MON-YYYY')='14-NOV-2012'
and EXTRACT(HOUR FROM begin_interval_time) between 22 and 23;

set verify off
select * from (
select active_session_history.event,
sum(active_session_history.wait_time +
active_session_history.time_waited) ttl_wait_time
from dba_hist_active_sess_history active_session_history
where event is not null
and SNAP_ID between &ssnapid and &esnapid
group by active_session_history.event
order by 2 desc)
where rownum

Find what the top SQL was at a particular reported time of day

First determine the snapshot id values for the period in question.

select snap_id,begin_interval_time,end_interval_time
from dba_hist_snapshot

Analyse a particular SQL ID and see the trends for the past day

sql.sql_id='&sqlid'

Do we have multiple plan hash values for the same SQL ID – in that case may be changed plan is causing bad performance

select
  SQL_ID
, PLAN_HASH_VALUE
, sum(EXECUTIONS_DELTA) EXECUTIONS
, sum(ROWS_PROCESSED_DELTA) CROWS
, trunc(sum(CPU_TIME_DELTA)/1000000/60) CPU_MINS
, trunc(sum(ELAPSED_TIME_DELTA)/1000000/60)  ELA_MINS
from DBA_HIST_SQLSTAT
where SQL_ID in (
'&sqlid')
group by SQL_ID , PLAN_HASH_VALUE
order by SQL_ID, CPU_MINS;
