Symptoms
The following symptoms were encountered:
- Database slowness.
- The performance of the database was severely impacted with the 'cursor: mutex X' wait event.
- AWR report for the problematic period shows a couple of inserts statements with several binds, having very high version count.
- The version count report for those insert statements shows the cursor sharing failure reason as "bind mismatch".
Note: If the Oracle Database software is below Patchset Update 11.2.0.2.2, then waits on 'cursor: mutex X' will inadvertently appear as waits on 'cursor: mutex S', due to Bug 9591812.
Changes
There were no changes made to the database, nor any changes made to the insert statements.
