Oracle等待事件之buffer busy waits
产生原因
官方定义：
This wait happens when a session wants to access a database block in the buffer cache but it cannot as the buffer is "busy". The two main cases where this can occur are:
Another session is reading the block into the buffer
Another session holds the buffer in an incompatible mode to our request
模拟等待
1.创建测试表并插入数据：
SQL> create table tb1 (id int ,name varchar2(10));
Table created.
SQL> insert into tb1 values (1,'scott');
1 row created.
SQL> insert into tb1 values (2,'tom');
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.2. 会话1循环不断修改数据：
SQL> select userenv('sid') from dual;
USERENV('SID')
--------------
1
SQL> begin
for i in 1..100000000 loop
update tb1 set name='rose' where id=2;
commit;
end loop;
end;
/2. 会话2也循环不断修改数据:
SQL> select userenv('sid') from dual;
USERENV('SID')
--------------
27
SQL> begin
for i in 1..100000000 loop
update tb1 set name='john' where id=1;
commit;
end loop;
end;
/3. 在会话3查看等待情况：

WHERE g.sql_hash_value = s.hash_value and username='HR' and event='buffer busy waits';

HR TB1 TABLE USERS解决方法
As buffer busy waits are due to contention for particular blocks then you cannot take any action until you know which blocks are being competed for and why.
Eliminating the cause of the contention is the best option.
Note that "buffer busy waits" for data blocks are often due to several processes repeatedly reading the same blocks (eg: if lots of people scan the same index)
- the first session processes the blocks that are in the buffer cache quickly but then a block has to be read from disk
- the other sessions (scanning the same index) quickly 'catch up' and want the block which is currently being read from disk
- they wait for the buffer as someone is already reading the block in.
The following hints may be useful for particular types of contention - these are things that MAY reduce contention for particular situations:
Block Type Possible Actions
- data blocks Eliminate HOT blocks from the application. Check for repeatedly scanned / unselective indexes. Change PCTFREE and/or PCTUSED.
Check for 'right- hand-indexes' (indexes that get inserted into at the same point by many processes). Increase INITRANS. Reduce the number of rows per block.
- segment header Increase of number of FREELISTs. Use FREELIST GROUPs (even in single instance this can make a difference).
- freelist blocks Add more FREELISTS. In case of Parallel Server make sure that each instance has its own FREELIST GROUP(s).
- undo header Add more rollback segments.参考： WAITEVENT: "buffer busy waits" Reference Note (Doc ID 34405.1)
