Measures reported by SybProcCacheTest

The SybProcCacheTest reports the procedure cache statistics of a Sybase database server. The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Procedure_requests The number of times stored procedures were executed Trans/Sec  
Disk_reads The number of times that stored procedures were read from disk rather than found and copied in the procedure cache Reads/Sec If this value is consistantly high, increase the procedure cache size.

 

Cache_hit_ratio Percentage of procedure requests served from cache Percent If this value is low, consider increasing procedure cache memory or add more memory to the server.

 

Procedures_created The number of procedures created during the sample interval Procedures/Sec  
Procedures_aged_out The number of times that a procedure aged out of cache Procedures/Sec
