PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS TO REDUCE WAITS RELATING TO PARTITION OR DBSPACE MUTEX | |
product: | |
INFORMIX SERVER / 5725A3900 / E10 - | |
Problem description: | |
Following the fix for IT41654 "Massive parallel activity to the same table can create a bottleneck on mutex wait pt_partnum" where there are a large number of threads operating concurrently on the same table, it may be possible to observe a number of threads waiting, with zero wait time, on the mutex for the main partition associated with the table. At a lower frequency if may also be possible to observe waits for the mutex associated with the dbspace where that partition is located. The type of stack seen for the threads may vary according to whether the table is fragmented. The top part of some example stacks are: yield_processor_mvp mt_lock_wait mt_lock rsnoalters fmnoalters scan_create it_create join_create ... yield_processor_mvp mt_lock_wait mt_lock flalloc rspnopen fm_openfragx fmnoalters scan_create it_create join_create ... yield_processor_mvp mt_lock_wait mt_lock set_leadpartp get_leadpartp lktable lkrow phys_scan_get_row_lock ... | |
