Tuning in action

Abstract

Imagine that your database has all the right indexes. Its buffer manager has been tuned to give a high hit ratio, the buffer fits in RAM, and the data is well distributed on disk. You're done, right? Well, no, because the application code might be poorly written. It might include delinquent design patterns. The demoed tuning tool AppSleuth will find those delinquent design patterns but it is the demo visitor's job to fix them.
