Re: Data Dictionary Hit Ratio - myth or fact?

Yepp (pun intended),

I have lost years of my life fighting this stuff. In a way it is kind of dissappointing to see that it is still going on.

For this customer, let me make a prediction: 1) The data dictionary cache hit ratio is responsible for all their problems 2) They will spend a considerable amount of time and effort (and money) on this
3) They will probably in the end just increase some memory parameters and the hit ratio will go up
4) They will feel very good about it
5) Performance hasn't hasn't changed a bit

Hmm, I should do a white paper this. Yepp, I will

Anjo.
