awr_plan_change.sql脚本是Kerry Osborne的一个脚本,这个脚本也是我非常喜欢并且经常使用的一个脚本。脚本如下所示
set lines 155

正常情况下,这个脚本并没有什么问题,但是这个脚本在某些场景下,它计算SQL语句的平均执行时间(avg_etime)是有问题的(avg_etime在有些场景是不准确的)。下面以一个案例来简单分析一下。如下所示,SQL_ID=799tsyjq9p1r6是数据仓库中的一个SQL语句,使用awr_plan_change.sql分析这个SQL,发现它的平均执行时间(AVG_ETIME)有非常大的波动,如下所示,我们以2023-10-04为起点,如下所示,你会发现它的平均执行时间多的时候为1559.825秒,短的时侯为25.080秒,这个SQL并没有使用绑定变量,它的执行计划从2023-10-04号到2023-10-08号没有变化过(PLAN_HASH_VALUE没有变化),那么这个SQL的平均执行时间为什么有这么大的波动呢?

其实,确切来说,就是awr_plan_change.sql中计算的平均执行时间(AVG_ETIME)有误,首先要说明的是数据库的快照间隔(SNAP_INTERVAL)是30分钟,而这个SQL的执行时间超过AWR的快照间隔了。这个SQL的开始执行时间和结束时间,跨越了几个snap_id,我们可以使用sqlstat.sql分析如下所示:

可以清晰的看到2023-10-07号,这个SQL的执行时间在快照2023-10-07 14:00和2023-10-07 15:00AWR快照区间内完成,而在14:00-14:30, 14:30-15:00内,SQL没有执行完成,所以它的执行次数为0,在15:00-15:30这个快照区间内,它的ELAPSED_TIME_DELTA为88.3,所以这样统计时,它的"Elapsed Average"(它等价于awr_plan_change.sql脚本中的AVG_ETIME)为88.3秒,而这个SQL的实际执行时间为1101.6+ 1806.2+ 88.3 ~= 2996.1秒,而2023-10-08号的执行时长为1638 +1808.6 + 1187.7~= 4634.3秒。那么awr_plan_change.sql统计出错的原因是啥呢?因为脚本里面有一个条件:and executions_delta > 0,它排除了那些正在执行,但是快照间隔内没有执行完的记录数据(因为这些记录的executions_delta为0),正确的做法是要汇总这些数据然后除以执行次数才是SQL正在的平均执行时间。所以awr_plan_change.sql对于哪些执行时间超过AWR采样间隔的SQL,它的统计数据就会不正确。
其实DBA_HIST_SQLSTAT的elapsed_time_delta这个字段,它统计的是AWR采样间隔内,SQL语句(执行一次或多次)的执行时间,也就是说它是这个采样间隔内差值,一个变化值,而不是SQL语句的完整累加值。Delta本身就是第4个希腊字母,其实delta也表示微积分中的曲率,在数学和科学中表示单位时间内,指标的的变化量。所以,你分析AWR报告时,也要注意一个问题,如果你生成AWR报告的快照开始时间和结束时间不能覆盖SQL语句的开始执行时间和结束执行时间,那么AWR报告中的SQL语句的Elapsed Time per Exec (s)也是不正确的。这个也是很多人没有特别留意的地方。
