Is setting JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES to a value greater than 0 recommended in Oracle database 11.2.0.3?

Hi All,

I want to understand if it's recommended to set JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES parameter to a value greater than 0 (1000 as per our system)? As setting this parameter to a value greater than 0 enables DBMS SCHEDULER jobs in Oracle database, I would like to know if this poses any performance issues? We are using version 11.2.0.3.

FYI, in our test instance the value is 1000, but in production it's 0. I would like to enable the jobs in production, but need to know the pros and cons.

Particularly these two jobs: RLM$EVTCLEANUP and RLM$SCHDNEGACTION that are running frequently in our test instance.

Howdy, Stranger!
