"orasrp" - Free Oracle response time based trace profiler.

Tuesday Jun 21, 2005

Ever since I started reading the "Optimizing Oracle Performance" book by Cary Millsap, I have been salivating over getting a copy of the Hotsos profiler - but alas it is too expensive. Recently I tried to find a copy of their free version "Sparky" but it had been pulled due to support issues.

Finally, I stumbled upon orasrp. This analyzer is written in python and can be used standalone to produce html, or you can browse a directory of trace files via your web browser.

I downloaded orasrp. Am a tkprof newbie and I think orasrp is just great. I was analyzing an update statement (which creates an intermediate temp table). The output from orasrp was a lot easier to interpret than the tkprof output. I found some parts of the tkprof misleading (probably my fault).

I have uploaded v2.1 of orasrp. This was the last known version with support for Oracle 10g wait events. This is python version so it can be run anywhere there is a python interpreter.
