Performance Tuning Oracle 11g

Performance tuning is a complex task that daunts many Oracle DBAs. It is as much an art as a science. While GUI tools such as Oracle Enterprise Manager and Quest TOAD provide a nice slick graphical interface, to dig into the internal nuts and bolts of database performance, the serious Oracle performance analyst relies on reports generated by v$ dynamic performance views from within the Oracle 11g data dictionary. The following v$ views provide insight into database tuning for Oracle 11g.
