    log file sync

    DBAs,

    We recently got a lot of complaints about one database for its slowness.
    I took a snapshot during the slow time whose time window is 15 minuets.
    From the stats report, in the top 5 waits, we saw the log file sync.
    How can we know it is abnormal or normal?

    The important part in the report is as follows:
    Code:
    Instance Efficiency Percentages (Target 100%)
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                Buffer Nowait %:  100.00       Redo NoWait %:  100.00
                Buffer  Hit   %:   99.24    In-memory Sort %:   99.96
                Library Hit   %:   85.99        Soft Parse %:   44.28
             Execute to Parse %:   15.49         Latch Hit %:   98.70
    Parse CPU to Parse Elapsd %:   89.44     % Non-Parse CPU:   55.74
