For those of you owning a Toad bundle that includes Benchmark Factory (BMF),
there is a new BMF 6.5 beta that is available:
http://benchmarkfactory.inside.quest.com/index.jspa
The two new features that are of most interest:
New Oracle Trace Record and Playback Wizard -This beta release is the first
release with the new Oracle Workload Record and Playback. This consists of a new
wizard to walk the user the entire process of capturing the workload, including
the database backup.
Oracle Profile Improvements -The Oracle profile now supports multiple Oracle
Homes, Direct Connections, as well as being able to specify “Connect As”. The
Oracle Profile also has a new Statistics page to allow the user to automatically
capture Statspack or AWR snapshots during test execution.
