Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Big Difference in Select and Create Table As Select Traces
No, neither of those things worked. Things are getting curiouser and curiouser: I tried using create materialized view instead of create table, and I accidentally did so as sys. The materialized view was created in a few seconds. However if I as sys, tried to do a CTAS instead of create materialized view, the statement hangs. So I thought I'd try create materialized view as the correct user, i.e., not as sys. The create materialized view for the non-sys user also hung.
From the sys trace file in which the materialized view was created, here is the statement actually creating and populating the underlying table
CREATE TABLE "SYS"."PS_COMPENSATION2" AS SELECT DISTINCT J1.EMPLID FROM PS_JOB J1 ,PS_SAL_RATECD_TBL S1, PS_COMPENSATION WHERE J1.EMPLID = PS_COMPENSATION.EMPLID AND
J1.EMPL_RCD =
PS_COMPENSATION.EMPL_RCD AND
J1.EFFDT =
PS_COMPENSATION.EFFDT AND
J1.EFFSEQ =
PS_COMPENSATION.EFFSEQ AND
S1.SETID = J1.SETID_SALARY AND
S1.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN = J1.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN
AND
S1.GRADE = J1.GRADE
AND S1.STEP = J1.STEP AND
S1.EFFDT = ( SELECT MAX(S2.EFFDT)
FROM
PS_SAL_RATECD_TBL S2
WHERE S2.SETID =
J1.SETID_SALARY AND
S2.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN =
J1.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN AND
S2.GRADE = J1.GRADE AND
S2.STEP = J1.STEP AND
S2.EFFDT <=
J1.EFFDT) AND
S1.COMP_RATECD =
PS_COMPENSATION.COMP_RATECD

Here is what happens if I try the create materialized view as user Oracle. Again this is the attemptto create the underlying table and populate it. The statement hangs
CREATE TABLE "ORACLE"."PS_COMPENSATION2" AS SELECT DISTINCT J1.EMPLID
FROM PS_JOB J1 ,PS_SAL_RATECD_TBL S1, PS_COMPENSATION

WHERE S2.SETID = J1.SETID_SALARY AND
S2.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN = J1.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN AND

I thought, perhaps it has something to do with tablespaces, but If I login as sys and tell it to create the Materialized view in another tablespace ... create materialized view ps_compensation2 tablespace dba_admin_data AS SELECT DISTINCT J1.EMPLID
FROM PS_JOB J1 ,PS_SAL_RATECD_TBL S1, PS_COMPENSATION
WHERE J1.EMPLID = PS_COMPENSATION.EMPLID AND
J1.EMPL_RCD = PS_COMPENSATION.EMPL_RCD AND
J1.EFFDT = PS_COMPENSATION.EFFDT AND
J1.EFFSEQ = PS_COMPENSATION.EFFSEQ AND
S1.SETID = J1.SETID_SALARY AND
S1.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN = J1.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN
AND S1.GRADE = J1.GRADE
AND S1.STEP = J1.STEP AND
S1.EFFDT = ( SELECT MAX(S2.EFFDT)
FROM PS_SAL_RATECD_TBL S2
WHERE S2.SETID = J1.SETID_SALARY AND
S2.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN = J1.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN AND
S2.GRADE = J1.GRADE AND
S2.STEP = J1.STEP AND
S2.EFFDT <= J1.EFFDT) AND
S1.COMP_RATECD = PS_COMPENSATION.COMP_RATECD
The materialized view is created. However, if I as sys run
create materialized view oracle.ps_compensation2 tablespace dba_admin_data AS SELECT DISTINCT J1.EMPLID
FROM PS_JOB J1 ,PS_SAL_RATECD_TBL S1, PS_COMPENSATION
WHERE J1.EMPLID = PS_COMPENSATION.EMPLID AND
J1.EMPL_RCD = PS_COMPENSATION.EMPL_RCD AND
J1.EFFDT = PS_COMPENSATION.EFFDT AND
J1.EFFSEQ = PS_COMPENSATION.EFFSEQ AND
S1.SETID = J1.SETID_SALARY AND
S1.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN = J1.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN
AND S1.GRADE = J1.GRADE
AND S1.STEP = J1.STEP AND
S1.EFFDT = ( SELECT MAX(S2.EFFDT)
FROM PS_SAL_RATECD_TBL S2
WHERE S2.SETID = J1.SETID_SALARY AND
S2.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN = J1.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN AND
S2.GRADE = J1.GRADE AND
S2.STEP = J1.STEP AND
S2.EFFDT <= J1.EFFDT) AND
S1.COMP_RATECD = PS_COMPENSATION.COMP_RATECD
The statement never completes. Lots of time spent waiting on direct path write temp.
I hope this is clear.

Subject: Re: Big Difference in Select and Create Table As Select Traces
Recently I had more or less similar situation. Select will complete in seconds.. CTAS with the same Slecet will run for hours. I had a TAR and was successfully resolved.
I think, this could be a case of issues of CBO with View merging and UNNEST. Essentially, CBO does not force the code to perform cost-based transaction transformations for CREATE statements.
You may try two options:
1. Use UNNEST hint in the subquery. [SELECT /*+ UNNEST */ MAX(S2.EFFDT)]
2. OR At session level set "_optimizer_cost_based_transformation" to off and try the same query, without hint.
We have a document now based on my TAR : Note:399077.1. You may want to refer to it.
I am curios to know if either of them helps you.
Shiva
