Analyze the execution time and efficiency of your stored programs. The Profiler is particularly useful for finding bottlenecks in stored code and quality assurance and testing.

---|---|---|---|
Refresh |
Update both Run and Group tree views with the latest profiling data. |
Alt+R | |
Filters / Preferences |
Open the Profiler Filter/Preferences Dialog. You can sort and filter the result data according to thresholds that you set. This makes it easy to limit the amount of data displayed, and to isolate the most significant items. For example, you can select lines that were not called during the run, or runs with total times higher than average. |
Alt+P | |
Delete |
Delete the data for the selected run. If a group is selected then delete the group. Removing the group does not remove the associated run data. |
Del | |
Create New Group |
Create a new group. Open the New Group / Group Properties Dialog. Create groups to logically connect code units and runs. You determine which units and runs belong to a group. You can combine data for a single code unit across multiple runs in order to determine the real coverage and execution times. This is useful when testing stored code in several different runs with different parameters. |
Ins | |
Locate the selected object in DB Navigator |
Open DB Navigator with the tree expanded to highlight the selected object. See where the object is in the database tree. |

Open the selected object |
Open the selected object in the Code Editor. Select a line of source code in the Source Viewer tab to open the Code Editor at that line. |

Properties |
Open the New Group / Group Properties Dialog to modify the selected group. |

Launch Xpert tuning |
Open SQL Optimizer for Oracle. |
A run contains all code units that are called during execution. If a procedure or function is a part of a package, the whole package becomes part of the run. The same rule applies to type methods.
Selection | Description of information |
---|---|
All Runs |
Totals across all the available runs. Coverage Time Statistics |
Run |
Basic run characteristics (comment, date, number of lines, etc…), totals across all the run units. Coverage Time Statistics |
For each group, you have the option of displaying the data either separately by run, or with runs combined.

All Groups |
Totals across all the groups. Time Statistics |
Group |
Basic group characteristics, totals across the group units and runs. Coverage Time Statistics |
A PL/SQL code unit can be a stand-alone procedure or function, a package body, a type body or an anonymous block. A package body and type body contains further procedures and functions. For a procedure or function, it is sometimes possible to determine how many times it has been called during a run by parsing the available source code and combining the data about the lines where the procedure/function is called.
The Profiler will show you a line-by line analysis of the execution, including the number of times each line was executed and the time required for execution.
The Profiler:
The Profiler displays the profiling data alongside the actual source code. (This feature is not available if the source code has changed since it was last tested in the currently selected run, or if it is not identical across the runs in a group.)
Selection | Description |
---|---|
Procedure, Function, Trigger Body |
Basic characteristics, totals across the runs. Combines the group runs if Combine Runs in Group Result Sets is selected in the Profiler Filter/Preferences Dialog. Time Statistics Call Distribution Source Viewer |
Type Body, Package Body |
Basic characteristics, total across the runs. Combines the group runs if Combine Runs in Group Result Sets is selected in the Profiler Filter/Preferences Dialog. Coverage Call Distribution Time Statistics Source Viewer |

Note: The Profiler uses the Oracle session it was activated in. |
