Oracles function result cache (FRC) can in certain cases give a considerable performance boost. Application context is another useful feature. How does FRC work when the function result relies on context-settings? And how can we make them play well together?
Can we use PL/Scope to find dead and potentially dead PL/SQL code? Yes! And it takes less than a second!
PL/Scope records declarations and usages of procedures and functions, so it should be easy to do a quick comparison of what’s declared and what’s actually used.
- nice theory...
