V$system_event中Wait事件的一段话和resources_wait.sql
V$SYSTEM_EVENT shows the total number of waits and timeouts, and the total
waiting time recorded for each type of event, accumulated for all processes over
the life of the instance. It is normal to order the events waited for in descending
order of the total time waited, as an indicator of the potential severity of each
type of wait.
However, the total time waited is really only meaningful for those that indicate
waiting for resources. If processes have been waiting because they have no work
to do, then the time waited is immaterial. If they have been waiting for routine
operations, such as disk I/O, then the total time waited will depend on the
workload. In such cases, the average time waited is much more interesting than
the total time waited.
This classification of wait types into idle waits, routine waits, and resource waits
is vital to a correct understanding of the wait statistics. Accordingly, APT has
separate scripts for resource waits and routine waits, and ignores idle waits
altogether. The routine_waits.sql script shows only the average time waited for
each type of routine wait. The resource_waits.sql script (see Example 2.1) shows
the types of resources waited for in descending order of the total time waited, but
also shows the average time waited.
