Rob,

• Can you share the delete statement text?
• Is the index structure on all involved foreign keys the same (on this and the other database)?
• Can perform a sql-trace of both cases (fast and slow)?

Subject: query and delete records really slow in a table

Hi there!

We have a couple (18) of tables "linked" with foreign keys and cascading delete. The largest table contains < 1.000.000 records.

When deleting a record from the top level table, this is extremely slow (like waiting a couple of minutes). On another database (on the same server and on another server) deleting is fast (<1sec). Tables contain defferent data.

-There are no blocking locks
-rebuilding the indexes didn't help
-the explain plan looks ok and is the same for the different databases

0 DELETE STATEMENT optimizer=ALL_ROWS (cost=460 card=1 bytes=73)

1	0	  DELETE of 'OST_STUDENT_STUDIEVOORTGANG'	
2	1	    HASH JOIN (SEMI) (cost=460 card=1 bytes=73)	
3	2	      TABLE ACCESS (FULL) of

'OST_STUDENT_STUDIEVOORTGANG' TABLE
(cost=57 card=31859 bytes=1146924)
4 2 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) of 'OST_STUDENT_EXAMEN' TABLE (cost=199
card=55431 bytes=2050947)

-I moved all tables en indexes to another tablespace, didn't help
-There are no errors in the alert.log.

Can anybody help?

Thanks!

Rob
