Oracle E-Business Suite SQL report from the Enginatics Library powered by Blitz Report™.
Historic system time model values from the automated workload repository showing a breakdown of how much percent of the database time was spent e.g. on excuting SQL, PL/SQL or Java code, parsing statements etc..
To see data in this report based on dba_hist_sys_time_model, set the following: alter session set container=PDB1; alter system set awr_pdb_autoflush_enabled=true;

The DBA AWR System Time Percentages report provides a proportional breakdown of how the database spends its time. Instead of raw seconds, it shows percentages (e.g., "80% SQL Execution, 10% Parsing, 5% PL/SQL"). This is crucial for understanding the nature of the workload. For example, a system spending 40% of its time on "Hard Parse" indicates a code quality issue (lack of bind variables), whereas 90% "SQL Execution" suggests a need for SQL tuning or more hardware.
- Workload Characterization: "Is our system mostly doing calculation (CPU) or waiting for data (I/O)?"
- Code Quality Audit: "Are we wasting resources on overhead tasks like parsing and connection management?"
- Tuning Focus: "Should we focus on optimizing PL/SQL loops or SQL queries?"
This report calculates the percentage contribution of each time model statistic to the total DB Time.
Key Features:
- SQL Execution Time %: Time spent actually running queries.
- Parse Time %: Time spent compiling SQL (Hard vs. Soft).
- PL/SQL Execution Time %: Time spent in procedural logic.
- Connection Management %: Time spent logging on/off.
The report queries DBA_HIST_SYS_TIME_MODEL.
Key Tables:
DBA_HIST_SYS_TIME_MODEL: Historical time model statistics.
- Strategic Tuning: Directs tuning efforts to the area with the biggest potential ROI (e.g., fixing parsing issues can double throughput).
- Application Profiling: Helps developers understand the behavior of their application code.
- Anomaly Detection: A sudden spike in "Sequence Load" or "Failed Parse" indicates a specific application bug.
