This is a product for 8i,9i,10g! So your comments are misplaced. Self
tuning; local management, undo segments and db_cache_size are not as
widely used as you think. Of course, you are entitled to your opinion;
you write books that you sell for $100 and as such you better be
giving people their money's worth.

The book is about OMLET and tuning Oracle with OMLET; as such, only
queries that made it into a version are reflected in the book. It is
not targeting general audience.

I worked for Digital Rdb - the KODA group; and joined Oracle when they
bought the Digital rdbms business and as such I thank Digital for
doing that: having access to the Rdb code; which SQL server borrowed
heavily. I added index only tables to Rdb and later to Oracle kernel.
Of course your mother helped me do that; she s*** nicely!

see a doctor; perhaps the rags slipped! got the OMLET treatment or
both!

I guess Oracle profs are capable of do that by themselves. Do not
insult them or their intel. with your crab.
