Rows per Exec
There is a section titled "SQL ordered by Gets" in statspack reports. This section reports the sql statements performing most of the buffer gets.
CPU Elapsd
Buffer Gets Executions Gets per Exec %Total Time (s) Time (s) Hash Value
--------------- ------------ -------------- ------ -------- --------- ----------
One important thing missing from these columns is the number of rows processed per execution for each sql statement. With a simple change we can add a column named "rows per exec" showing this information. By knowing how many rows the sql processes I can decide if the number of buffer gets is acceptable or not. If I have a sql statement processing a few rows but performns lots of buffer gets then I need to see if something can be done about that sql.
If the sql involves calculating aggregates like group by statements then this information may not be that useful, you need to do a more detailed analysis of the sql statement. But for simple sql statements with no aggregates this can be helpful.
After this change that section looks like the following:
CPU Elapsd
Buffer Gets Executions Gets per Exec Rows per Exec %Total Time (s) Time (s) Hash Value
--------------- ------------ -------------- -------------- ------ -------- --------- ----------
To make this change find this line in sqprepins.sql.
-- SQL statements ordered by buffer gets
Remove the lines between that line and this line.
-- SQL statements ordered by physical reads
In between these two lines insert the following code. Notice the lines in bold.

Rollback Segments
The sections named "Rollback Segment Stats" and "Rollback Segment Storage" provides information about individual rollback segments. The first one gives information like undo bytes written, wraps, extends, shrinks, etc... The second one gives information about the average, maximum and optimum sizes of the rollback segments. I do not remember an occasion where I used these sections for databases with automatic undo management. So, I remove these sections as I do not them for automatic undo. This change reduces my report file size from about 500KB to about 100KB. This is not a major change but helps me keep unused data out of the report.
To make this change find the lines "-- Rollback segment" and "-- Undo Segment" and comment or remove the lines between them.
The last three posts were about modifications to sprepins.sql for custom statspack reports. Actually there are more changes I use to customize my reports to my needs but I think these three posts can help you in starting if you want to customize sprepins.sql.
