Do you have a script that counts the number of leafs for an index?

  How many times each index used:

  select SUBSTR(hint, INSTR(' ') + 1, LENGTH(hint) - INSTR(' ') - 1),   count(*)
  from dba_outline_hints
  where hint like '%INDEX%'
  GROUP BY SUBSTR(hint, INSTR(' ') + 1, LENGTH(hint) - INSTR(' ') - 1);

  List of indices not used:

  Select index_name from user_indexes where index_name not in (   Select distinct SUBSTR(hint, INSTR(' ') + 1, LENGTH(hint) - INSTR(' ')

  Subject: sql question

  Okay folks...Hopefully someone can help and provide some pointers...

  DB is 8174
  I have gathered a great deal of outlines in order to identify index   usage.
  I would like to document the indices in the database and if they were   used or unused and if they were used how many sql statments or outlines   referenced a given index.

  I'm not sure how to start with such in effort and not make it a manual   nightmare.

  Hints look like:
  select hint from dba_outline_hints where hint like '%INDEX%'   ..

  INDEX(S_OPTY S_OPTY_U1)
  INDEX(S_OPTY S_OPTY_U1)
  INDEX(S_OPTY S_OPTY_V2)
  INDEX(S_OPTY S_OPTY_U1)
  INDEX(S_OPTY S_OPTY_U1)
  INDEX(S_OPTY S_OPTY_V2)
  INDEX(S_CONTACT S_CONTACT_U1)
  INDEX(S_CONTACT S_CONTACT_U1)
  INDEX(S_CONTACT S_CONTACT_U1)
  INDEX(S_CONTACT S_CONTACT_V3)
  INDEX(S_CONTACT S_CONTACT_P1)
  INDEX(S_SRV_REQ S_SRV_REQ_U1)
  INDEX(S_SRV_REQ S_SRV_REQ_U1)
  INDEX(S_OPTY_CON S_OPTY_CON_U1)
  INDEX(S_SRV_REQ S_SRV_REQ_U1)
  INDEX(S_SRV_REQ S_SRV_REQ_U1)
  INDEX(S_ORDER S_ORDER_U1)
  INDEX(S_ORDER S_ORDER_U1)

  ..

  How can I trim off the data to the left and right of the index name,   count the number of times an index is listed in dba_outline_hints and   list indices not used at all?

  Probably pretty straight forward SQL, but it's one of my weaker areas.   Cheers
