We get a performance problem on our database when a user/process transmits large amounts of data. It causes all our interfaces to grind to a halt. This user/process is not consistant, and we hit this problem once or twice a day. Does anyone know how I can track this user/process? Thanks.
How does the user transmit data?
Is he using SQLLDR to load data or using dblink to insert rows from db to another db ?

The question is, how do we trace the user/process that is causing this data surge?
Hi,
What is your requirement? If you want to trace a single session(obviously you should not have any problems in identifying the problem user), you can do so setting the 10046 event with level 8(just the wait events). You can alternately generate the statspack report for that user alone.
So again, what is your requirement?
Thanks

The answer is, "what is a data surge, and what do you mean by 'transmit'?"
Run the following at the time of the heavy transaction to find out the query, sid, oracle username, os username etc..Quote:
