Hi there,

Is there a way to compute the index use rate selecting ad hoc columns from dictionary, rather than using alter index XXX monitoring usage to see if an index is used or not ?

Thanks !

Hi,
You can find whether index is being used or not. You will not be able to calculate using rate.

You can try v$segment_Statistics and v$segstat to get the number of logical reads(in proportion to the physical writes which are caused by index maintenance). Those will tell you how much the Index is used , and not just if the Index got used or not which the Monitoring clause tells you.

But do keep in mind that just becos there are a tons of logical reads against an index,doesnt mean that its an efficient index..it tells you how much the index is used.
