Parallel Execution

All

I just finished reading a post titled “Pitfalls of Using Parallel Execution
with SQL Developer” which can be found here:-

http://structureddata.org/2012/02/29/pitfalls-of-using-parallel-execution-wi
th-sql-developer/

I’m not trying to start a “bash SQL Developer” thread here. What I’m
interested in knowing is whether TOAD is susceptible to this same issue as
well?

There are Toad options (do search on parallel) to control this very thing - been in the product like 5+ years - but you need to set the option to disable this scenario.

The only item I found searching on “parallel” was:-

Schema Browser -> Data Tab -> Use NOPARALLEL Hint

Does this affect queries done in editor windows as well?

That’s the one - in the case that you see data in a grid on a parallel object - that’s our code and on us to control - and releases the locks. But if you do so in the editor, for example

Select /*+ parallel */ * from big_table …

Then it’s your code and not ours - so onus is on user to understand and deal with properly :slight_smile:

That option affects SB data grids only.

That’s exactly what I said – Schema Browser is our code and option
handles that – editor is their code and their responsibility

Thanks for the clarification, I appreciate it :slight_smile:
