Last updated on JULY 20, 2024

Applies to:

Gen 1 Exadata Cloud at Customer (Oracle Exadata Database Cloud Machine) - Version N/A and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

Queries accessing v$segstat or gv$segstat view are slow due to an extremely high number of rows in the underlying fixed table X$KSOLSFTS. Gathering statistics on fixed table X$KSOLSFTS does not complete. Tracing the problem query shows extremely high number of rows being returned for table X$KSOLSFTS.

Looking at the the trace it is matching DOC ID 1532624.1 , as we can see huge number of rows in X$KSOLSFTS table. But the bug 21050285 is included first in 12.1.
