Tablespace Chart
Tablespace shows the buffer busy waits per tablespace. The most common type of block is "data block" which may indicate contention for "hot" blocks. Most of the time, the contention is caused by multiple sessions wanting to modify different rows within a single block.
Block class chart
Block Class shows the buffer busy waits per block class.
User Buffer Busy grid

Show Busy Segments (Button and Grid)
Oracle does not keep a record of the buffers that are most often the subject of buffer busy waits. However, these details are available while the buffer busy wait is actually occurring. Spotlight records the details of any buffers that are busy when a normal (foreground) refresh occurs.
The details (segment name) of these buffers are displayed in the Buffer busy waits page when you click the Show busy segments button.
Column | Description |
---|---|
Segment |
The name of the segment (table, index, rollback segment, etc) experiencing buffer busy waits. |
Occurs |
The number of times a buffer busy wait was recorded against this segment. Since Spotlight checks for busy buffers only when it performs a foreground refresh, the actual number of buffer busy waits is likely to be much higher than this number. |
