If you can not change the commit frequency, maybe tweaking COMMIT_WRITE can help? ( at least for a little bit )

Best regards,

Cary read my mind.  The problem is almost certainly related to commit frequency.  Excessive commits will *kill* performance and scalability.

Does the application need to be committing as often as it does?

 log file sync is the main reason.
 _log_io_size is 0 (default??)

 strength on my db when user session only 200 but log file sync can  reach 800 session waitings (from dbconsole). when checking the io log  file parallel write max is 4ms, but log file sync can reach 22ms.

 average redo blocks per write is 13 which means average buffer to  write to redolog buffer is only 6656 nytes.

 yes the application is heavily commit activites (now in the "load  testing" stage)

 any direction why too many spikes (strange) on log file sync?
