The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Questions about Index rebuilding? should we do that?

Asked by aiklamha in Oracle Database, Oracle 9.x

Tags: , ,

Hello all,
I am having problems with the growth of indexes in my database... one of my index tablespace lose 30MB+ data on daily basis and this is not normal.. .this rate is accelerating... i discussed this issue in following question
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Database/Oracle/Q_23298289.html

There i decided to go for index rebuilding... while i was digging more in this topic i came across Tom's views about index rebuilding... after reading it i felt like stupid to have even thought about rebuilding indexes... following are the articles

http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:6601312252730

http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:2417875549841

Tom claims that there is no use of rebuilding index.. its waste of time, resources and efforts... i rebuilt my indexes one year back.. and i reclaimed a lot of space.. i did it in test now... and i reclaimed 40% space back from those big indexes..

i am interested in rebuilding big indexes (if not all) coz
1.  first they are big as compared to their tables
2.  secondly, now oracle has started assigning 8M extent every 3rd day to each of the indexes ... in my previous question somebody told me that due to index size, oracle has extended the extent size to be allocated.

Question is... should i rebuild the indexes? should i also collect statistics for rebuilt indexes?Start Free Trial
