Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Latch Contention on cache buffers lru chain
When we upreved a couple of our instances from 7.1.4 to 7.1.6, we immediately noticed an increase in the number of sleeps and latchwaits when Oracle tries to aquire a latch on the cache buffers lru chain. A parameter (spin_count) has helped alleviate some but not all of the enormous performance degradation we now see. Any insight/feedback would be appreciated.
