15 I am not implying the average operating system CPU utilization is 93%. In fact, it is probably higher.
16 Utilization equals the service time multiplied by the arrival rate, then divided by the number of CPU cores; U=St(/M. Response time equals the service time divided by one minus the utilization to the number of CPU cores power; Rt=St/(1-UM). For more details, see Forecasting Oracle Performance (Apress, 2007; p. 25-26) or visit the OraPub web site (http://www.orapub.com) and search for "forecasting formulas."
Oracle does speak to me. In a way, I'm like an Oracle therapist. If it's hurting, I'll listen, and I'll expend a tremendous amount of effort trying to help alleviate its pain as quickly as possible, while minimizing disruption to its operation. If you're interested, I'll teach you how to do this as well.
