After a decade of planning, editing, delays due to my own busyness, further editing and waiting for 23c, the release of 26ai and my pre-retirement finally unblocked the situation. I have agreed with Apress to publish the third edition of Troubleshooting Oracle Performance in 2026. #TOP3

I felt like taking a closer look at this new datapatch feature and ended up making some interesting discoveries 🙂

It may look okay (I doubt so), yet functionality is totally broken.

It's not new to 26ai, but it's the first time we've described it in the docs. So if you're still thinking there's only an SGA and a PGA ... let me introduce you to the MGA

Added a blog update about the V$PROCESS_MEMORY_DETAIL auto-population for processes with PGA growth to over 500MB. Enabled in Oracle 19.18+, so no "oradebug dump pga_get_detail" needed, just query the V$ views for a detailed "heapdump":

Any idea what the new (?) light blue color in the SQL Monitor reports mean? It's different between those displayed directly in the console, and the stored & opened ones. It looks as if it tries to show active steps, but does it incorrectly in the OCI console. 1 - in console, 2 - same rep stored

Looks like it's not available anymore, my SR regarding this was closed with something like "Internal bug was submitted for investigation, but hey, we got that alternate features "Look-up By Error or Error Code's First Argument" or "Search by Stack Trace" added which replace it.

Have you noticed 23ai FREE background process naming changed from ora_xxxx_SID to db_xxxx_SID? Curious how many shell scripts out there are going to break due to this once (if) 23ai is going to be released

Interesting how tech books are increadibly cheap compared to video courses. TOP www.amazon.com/Troubleshoot... is the best compilation of everything you need to know about Ora perf in 99.9% cases. It's 99$/US, 52€/EU. AOT learn.tanelpoder.com/courses/adva... is most likely great too, but it's 2000$.
