Great book fopr Oracle tuning

I spent hours looking at Oracle book, and this one was the easiest to understand and had the best tuning information. The CD-ROM was especially useful, and it had some tuning queries that allowed me to nearly double the speed of my application.

Helpful for DBA's and non-DBA's alike

I was recently on a site where PowerBuilder reports were running very, very slowly (four hours and more). The SQL looked OK so I created some new, denormalized tables. Then I turned to Burleson's book for tuning Oracle as well as the one from O'Reilly. There was no DBA at this company and the books were a godsend. Burleson's is clear and you can easily pick out the parts that apply to your particular site. By the time I finished the reports ran in five minutes or less and this book was a real aid in getting that done
