Could you recommend some books on Oracle tuning

It would not be the place to post, but "can anyone recommend some good books on Oracle tuning?
There are so many out there and I want to find a book as good as Tom Kyte.
So any recommendations would be much appreciated!

I second the recommendations of the fundamentals of Jonathan Lewis based cost and Christian Antognini Oracle performance troubleshooting. Both are very good books. There is also the book Cary Millsap and Jeff Holt, Oracle performance optimization, which is also very good.

Of them, I'd probably go for the first Christian because it is a book later and more updated and more complete on Oracle performance in general. Cary and Jeff's book is very good for performance in general - how to define the problem, etc. - and a way to discover what is happening within the Oracle. Jonathan's book focuses on the optimizer and how it turns a SQL statement into an execution plan. If you read Christian Book and still want to know more about the optimizer itself, then get the book of Jonathan.

Remember that you should look for a book that explains the principles that underlie the Oracle performance optimization and shows examples of things in action that you can replicate yourself. You shouldn't be looking for a book that is a simple list of recipes to follow - first to do this, then do it and so on. Parrot learning mode (simply repeating the same thing every time) is not the best way to do performance tuning. You need to learn and understand a system works behind the scenes and different techniques to use to investigate the problems. And not only to learn a list of checks to do each time. As they say - give a man a fish and feed him for a day, but teach him to fish and eat all his life.

All these books explain the principles underlying the performance tuning, how Oracle works internally and provide examples that you can repeat to yourself.

    I just uploaded a clip of mpeg streams but tells me I can't use it without a mpeg-2 Playback component.  Can you recommend what to buy?

    You can use Streamclip for most cases, but to play MPEG-2 files, like. VOB files, and to convert them to other formats, you should buy the reading component QuickTime MPEG-2 for Mac OSX, you can get online from the Apple Store for $19.99.

    However, I am under El Capitan like you, and when I tried to install the MPEG-2 component, I got a message that it could not be installed on my

    disk because the app was for an earlier version of my OS.  I don't know if others have had this problem, but I thought that I could

    mention it to you before you passed the $20.00.

    Can someone out there suggest a possible cause or same difficulty for am I at the end of my knowledge on this issue and my daughter is about to throw the thing out the window.

    Hello

    I think that the described issue could be related to a hardware problem, given that the laptop should not have problems running the Microsoft Office applications.

    In many cases, the s for laptop system could freeze due to a higher temperature.
    My girlfriend repeatedly asked for help because the laptop froze too.

    But the problem was linked to a higher temperature because cooling fans were clogged and cooling fans might not work correctly. She used the laptop sitting on the couch and there was not a lot of free space around the laptop to ensure good air circulation

    I want to say is that there are several reasons for such behavior annoying cell phone I think it would be wise to check the hardware first

  • Could you give me a list of what is safe to delete Windows XP?

    Could you give me a list of what is safe to delete Windows XP?

    This isn't a list of "programs".  This is a list of files and folders which many (more?) are Windows system files that should not be deleted.

    You can Google these names as easily as possible, although some names are completely ambiguous without the rest of the way - for example, _default and configuration could be anything. Panther looks like it is related to your Mac.

    You must uninstall programs ONLY by using the control panel > add / remove software.  Do not delete random files and folders.

    Download and run JDiskReport... and then you can see what's worth worrying in terms of size.

    If your Windows system is running slowly, it is quite possible that you have been infected by malicious software.  What antivirus application on side Windows do you use?  His subscription is up to date? The subscription has already lapsed?
