Accelerate SQL return by setting SQLPLUSARRAYSIZE (row prefetch)

Sometimes you may use the data in the SQLPLUSspool table. How can you speed up the spool? SQLPLUS has a row prefetch option. In SQLPLUS, arraysize is 15SQ by default.

In SQLPLUS, the default arraysize is 15.

SQL> show arraysize
Arraysize 15

It indicates that only 15 rows of records are transferred from the Oracle server to the client (SQLPLUS) at a time. Of course, JDBC and WEBLOGIC also have row prefetch.

For example:

SQL> select * from test where owner = 'adwu _ OPTIMA_AP11 ';

773 rows selected.

Elapsed: 00:00:30. 95

After setting the arraysize, the number of interactions between the SQLPLUS client and the database Server is significantly reduced, which is why 773 rows of data are returned twice faster than the first time. You can also see that, the second logical read is lower than the first logical read, which means setting row prefetch will affect logical read.
