Package cache hit ratio

1 New Member
Good day,

I've been monitoring a DB2 system and noticed a low package cache hit
ratio, I calculated it based on the formula in the db2 information center:

(1-(db.pkg_cache_i nserts/db.pkg_cache_lo okups))*100

as you can see below the average (most of the time) of the package cache
hit ratio is 30%

these are some values taken with a database snapshot:

Memory Pool Type = Package Cache Heap
Current size (bytes) = 15810560
High water mark (bytes) = 16728064
Configured size (bytes) = 8589934592 ---> Here i have
configured more than the water mark, and still have the 30%

and these are the package cache operations at the same point in time:

Package cache lookups = 22536477
Package cache inserts = 15406540
Package cache overflows = 0
Package cache high water mark (Bytes) = 14065030

What can i do to obtain a better cache hit ratio? :confused:

Thanks in advance.

the formula for package cache hit ratio is 1 - (package cache inserts/package cache lookups), what the result would be a effective ratio? currently we have cache inserts=25, cache lookups=35, so i get ratio =0.28, is this a good number?

Running DB2 8.1.6A on AIX 5.1 We are experience package cache overflows. The high water mark for package cache is showing as 16,108,513 bytes, or approximately 3933 4K pages. The package cache size is set at Maxapples * 8 Maxapples is at 500.

Hi, I have a few questions regarding the cache object: Does the cache object exist through postbacks? The cache object only exists for the current request, right? Is there a way to cache objects across multiple requests/sessions? Say, I have two users requesting the same page, can they share cached

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
