No - read Mike's comment carefully. It is a little out of context, but
he makes the perfectly valid statement that "proofs" undertaken on
a PC can break down at high loads on 'real systems'. You only have
to consider that PCs tend to be single-CPU systems to realise how
true that can be. It's why I sometimes give away free consultancy
time in exchange for temporary access to large-scale hardware.

and why I'd kill for Oracle to have a system event log facility similar
to
the one in DB2. Quite frankly, "the last 16 waits" or whatever it is
nowadays, just doesn't cut it in busy systems, I'm afraid.
And let's not even mention RAC...
