Folks

During a Benchmark Run on Batch Type Transactions on NON-RAC Database using Dedicated sessions following High "log buffer space" wait is seen. NOTE - Increasing log_buffer size from 7Mb to 32 Mb only resulted in a further REDUCED Performance.

Currently The Redo logfiles are on Mounted filesystem. Qs Will moving the Redo back to RAW Devices also Reduce the "log buffer space" wait wait for BATCH Runs?

NOTE - Previously, For OLTP type Transactions on the SAME Database, High "log file sync" wait was also seen with Redo on Mounted filesystem which disappreared when the Redo were moved to RAW Devices.

Oracle 10.2.0.3
Solaris 10

Will Share Statspack as needed

Cheers & Thanks

Vivek
