Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Strange results with Oracle 8.1.7 and statistic gathering dbms_stats vs dbms_utility
We have a customer with a large app using WebSphere and Oracle 8.1.7.
They run:
exec dbms_utility.analyze_schema('SAP', 'COMPUTE'); weekly.
We recently ran:
dbms_stats.gather_schema_stats(ownname=>'SAP';)
on our test system and saw HUGE improvements in speed.
Why is this? What is the difference between the two.
Please help and advise.
