Query Tuning question : How to avoid FTS on this table ?

C. BoutetNov 6 2016 — edited Nov 7 2016

DB Version: 9.2

OS : AIX 5.3

Below query currently takes 10 minutes to execute. It returns rougly 450 rows.Business want this query to complete much faster.

From the below execution plan, do you know which step is taking more time ? I want to know what is causing Full Table Scan for PDTCOST_CHARGE_MAP table in step2 shown in red below

PDTCOST_CHARGE_MAP is a non-partitioned table which is only 2 GB in size and it has 30 Million records .

SQL> select count(*) from PDTCOST_CHARGE_MAP;

  COUNT(*)

----------

  30155624

Step2 of predicate section in the execution plan shows FTS

access("P"."TRACKING_ID"="PCM"."TRACKING_ID" AND "P"."TRACKING_ID_SERV"="PCM"."TRACKING_ID_SERV")

       filter("P"."BILLING_INACTIVE_DT" IS NULL AND "PCM"."INACTIVE_DT" IS NULL OR "PCM"."ACTIVE_DT"= (SELECT /*+ */MAX("PCM1"."ACTIVE_DT") FROM "PDTCOST_CHARGE_MAP" "PCM1"))

But, PDTCOST_CHARGE_MAP_PK index has both TRACKING_ID and TRACKING_ID_SERV in it in the correct order.

And an index named PROD_CHG_MAP_TRACKING has TRACKING_ID, TRACKING_ID_SERV, INACTIVE_DT and BILLED_THRU_DT in the right order. Column position shown at bottom of this post (user_ind_columns output).  Despite having these 2 indexes, why is the optimizer not choosing neither of these indexes ?  Stats are up-to-date in PDTCOST_CHARGE_MAP table.

Although this is just a 2GB table, I would like optimizer to use index for step2. Any idea how I can do this? Any other recommendations welcome too.

Since I thought MAX (ACTIVE_DT) towards the end of the query is causing the FTS , I generated execution plan of just.But, It is using Index.

What is your reasoning for creating these objects programatically instead of using tags? This is a much more difficult way of adding components and should normally only be done if there is a good reason.
843844
Actually I have to write an AJAX enabled component that other users in my company will use. Otherwise I will have to give them a set of jsps. Now these jsps are more or less same for each applications so it will be a copy paste thing for each time. So basically this component will be replacement for all these jsp files. Writing a single composite custom component for all these jsps is the only way I can think of.

Anyway thanks for your time.

Thanks

Hey Ahsan

Did you figure out how to get the a4j action to invoke the bean. I have the same problem. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thank you
