Time spent not on DB.. but where?
Hi Folks
we have a problem in hand for one of our application running 11g R2 database.
One of our application is having performance issues. For example, when we go from one screen to another it takes about 5 minutes.. to complete.. but database level tracing / tkprof / ASH/AWR monitoring indicates there is no problem at the database level and the the elapsed time is only 1 minute for the processing of all queries involved.. We are trying to find out where the rest of the 4 minutes are spent.. i.e, the time not spent on the database server..
The application server is not CPU pegged at all.. Given this scenario, how can we proceed with finding out where the problem is? We suspect and guess that if its not db server and not app server, it has to be network but the question is how to prove that? If we enable sql net level tracing on the application server, would we be able to identify anything?
