Alex,

One way to find out for certain is to truss (strace, ktrace, tusc,
whatever...) an Oracle kernel that logs time to the event--on a test =
system.
In the truss output, you'll be able to see the exact size of the read =
calls.

Sometimes, even when the manual appears to document something =
completely,
you find that it's possible to understand things a little more =
thoroughly
than the even the staff who wrote the manual.

Subject: log file sequential read - arguments P3

Hi list.
Does anybody know whether P2/P3 arguments for "log file sequential read"
wait event are in database blocks or in log blocks?
The manual is not clear but it seems to mean database block size. =
However,=20
I believe that it gotta be log block size. I couldn't find anything =
useful=20
on Metalink either.

Thanks,
Alex
