Hi there,
Interesting observation. But I am just curious; is this still valid when
you have a DB server with, say, 95+% CPU utilisation??!! (I guess we all
know that if one don't get high CPU utilisation on a DB server, either
the owner has had too much money, or the DBA has some fine tuning to
do).
