I created a table called large_table. I inserted around 10,000 rows into it. It contains three columns
sl_no(primary key), name, and address.
After inserting values into the table i indexed the name column.
Now i issue a query with a hint forcing the optimizer to ignore the hint. Now i issue a query with a hint forcing the optimizer to use that hint. How can i be sure that the improvement in the second query's performance is due to the hint only and not due to the results of the first query being in cache? Short of shutting down the database and starting it up again, is there any other way? And by the way, does shutting down and starting up ensure that the results of the first query do not remain in cache?
