If the JDBC connection was a new one (because the webapp was restarted), then the server may have seen the query as a brand-new query and chose to re-parse it rather than using some cached compiled statement on the server. I'm' sure there are lots of reasons why Oracle would re-parse and determine a new plan for a statement: 1. The statement was actually different 2. The statement in the cache timed-out 3. One or more tables was changed structurally so the cache was deemed invalid 4. One or more tables had their indexes updated so the cache was deemed invalid 5. Oracle was restarted 6. Oracle got bored with the old plan and wanted to investigate it's options. > I know of no queries that are made to the > database immediately upon startup, and it's certainly not this one > since the query is page specific.

So, was this immediately after restart (i.e. before you hit any pages) or during the evaluation of a page? Your two statements appear to conflict. It is possible that Oracle was processing a query from before your webapp restarted? Does the query itself look good? If so, Oracle shouldn't have choked on it, even if it decided to change the plan for that query for whatever reason. Maybe I'm completely missing the point, here. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAktgjMsACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PDi4ACfdY9PslnmBo0nRHAEZ6oThB1E dMIAnivv/39UWf4vFXYHTHmnbtvX/stz =GfVN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
