ACS and baselines do work together? For example, did
baselines preserve some of the ACS – such that if the ACS information aged or
flushed out of the cache, we didn’t have to repeat the multiple execution, to
get the bind awareness back?
And the answer to that is no,
- The bind awareness will kick back in eventually
- The baseline mechanism will allow the optimizer to use ACS feedback and consider both the plans in the baseline
- But we need to have multiple execution to get the bind awareness back.
Let me show what I looked at.

So this new child cursor (child_number=1) is not only bind-sensitive,
but also bind aware and it is shareable. See how this pervious child cursor
(child_number=0) changed its is_shareable attribute from ‘Y’ to ‘N’, which is
non-shareable (not shared across different executions)
Now flipping the bind variable to most popular value, we get this.

We are back with where we started, we are using one of our baseline
plans, but we lost our bind awareness, means we did all the hard work with
multiple executions to get our bind awareness. The baselines have preserved and
enforcing our ACCEPETED plans, but we have to repeat the multiple executions to
get back the bind-awareness.
May be it helps if we remind ourselves what the optimizer does when
baseline plans are present? At hard parse the optimizer will peak at the binds
and generate the best cost plan anyways, regardless of the presence of a
baseline plans.
If this best cost plan matches with the one in baseline then we make
use of them, else just add the new plan to baseline as UNACCEPTED and store
there for future evolution, and make use of the best accepted plan from the
plan baselines.
Since we have two accepted plans in baselines, the initial hard parse
peek at the binds and get “99”, generates the best cost plan, which matches
with one of the baselines – job done. (and if the initial hard parse had peeked
and found the value ‘1’ we would have had our base lined index plan)
The subsequent execution of the cursor with a different value fall into
the standard sharable SQL scenario. The initial cursor was parsed with peeked
binds, the values of which do not suit our subsequent execution, until ACS
kicks in as previously.

In summary,
- ACS and baselines work alongside each other but somewhat independently
- ACS can provide SPM with bind-sensitive plans to evolve.
- SPM can store multiple plans that ACS requires
- But ACS attributes are not stored in SPM.
Even with multiple plans in the baselines, if your ACS information is
flushed or aged out of the cache, you are going to have repeated, relevant
executions to get that ACS information back, baselines cannot act as a shortcut
to bring back in that ACS feedback.
