Re: Parallel query on when it's not supposed to be (?)

I just wanted to pose a question to anyone on the list (particular the wait event guru's like Cary)...

Eliminating parallel query because you are seeing waits for it sounds to me a little like tuning the BCHR. I can't help but wonder if waiting for a parallel query is still the quickest way to get things done? Would killing the parallel query effectively move the waits to another category without achieving any real gain?

Regards,

      Mark.

BTW, the reason I care about this is that I'm trying to tune the production server and a fair number of waits associated with parallel query are showing up in the statspack report. Since parallel query is not supposed to be turned on there either, I started looking into it and found that both systems are exhibiting this bizarre (to me, anyway) behavior.

Can anyone a) explain what the heck is going on here and b) tell me how to drive a stake through the heart of parallel query on this system?

thanks,

janine
