-------------------------------
<p>Some redo-related performance issues can be solved with instance parameters and fancy Oracle features. However, the large majority of difficult redo issues are the direct result of the application generating far more redo than the IO subsystem can quickly service. This puts pressure on changing the application code, which many times is deep within the application's procedural code. This entices the performance analyst to sometimes get very creative and consider options like in-memory file systems or using the commit write facility described earlier in the chapter. But whatever the issues may be, remember to consider and evaluate solutions focused on Oracle, the operating system, and the application. p><p>The remainder of this chapter addresses the key redo-related wait events shown in Table 8-2. I will describe the problem and then provide a number of tactics and solutions to resolve it. p><p>The process is waiting for its commit to complete or its trigger to the log writer to write to complete. p>
