Perfomance issues just on production database_问答_开发者

I'm having some performance issues when querying a table in a production database. While the query runs in 2.1 seconds in the test database (returning 8640 of 28 million records), at production, it takes 2.05 minutes (returning 8640 of 31 million records). I'm having a hard time to find the problem since I'm not an oracle expert. Since the explain plan in both databases shows the correct index usage, I'm inclined to think that the problem resides on the table/indexes creation. I've noticed some small differences between the SQL scripts used for the table creation:

Test database:

The production database puts the indexes in another tablespace. Another difference is the next 5M at the tablespace declaration (no value defined in the test database).

When looking at the index properties, I also see some differences:

Two other things has come to my attention: the explain plan for select count(*) from thetable shows that the index is used at the test database, but shows a full table scan at the production database. Which led me to another observation: the test database index has 160MB and the production db has more than 1GB (and we don't do deletes on this table). Can anyone point me to the solution?

UPDATE

Here are the execution plans:

The Test database indexes properties include IOT_REDUNDANT_PKEY_ELIM and DROPPED columns but not the production indexes. These columns were added in oracle 10g.

Is perhaps the production database running under the old 9i version and the test database under 10g ? If so, I'd consider that a more significant difference than anything else.

That said if "select count(*) from thetable" is not using a primary key index it is very odd. The index stats are very out of date (14,004,395 rows when you suggest there's over 30 million and last gathered in March). If the table has doubled in size in the last six months, and its stats are even older, then it might be an issue.

The autotrace plan for production says "RULE" optimizer. If you look at the Oracle Tuning document (9i) section RBO Path 15: Full table scan it clearly states full table scan will be used.
