RE: Solid state disks for Oracle?

Show me where that changes a plan.  

No matter, the model for deploying SSD in conjunction with Oracle is not meant for tablespaces anyway. The primary focus for SSD is transaction logging acceleration.  

Any shop that is languishing over redo writing latency is doing so unnecessarily. The technology exists to serve up SSD via NFS to any large number of servers in the enterprise. The model is NFS->SAN Gateway->SSD and it is very very fast and supports extremely high bandwidth...and is OSCP certified...  

Oh, yeah, I'm sure there is some Oracle glossy somewhere that says ASM on round-spinning-thingies is faster than SSD...

	when dbms_stats.gather_system_stats is run then
	time to read a single block , and
	time to read multiple blocks at one time is
	stored is aux_stats$ table, which is used by the optimizer.
