INDEX_STATS
Creates a report showing various calculated statistics about the text index.
This procedure fully scans the text index tables, so it may take a long time to run for large indexes.
Syntax
procedure ctx_report.index_stats(
index_name IN VARCHAR2,
report IN OUT NOCOPY CLOB,
part_name IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
frag_stats IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT TRUE,
list_size IN NUMBER DEFAULT 100,
report_format IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT FMT_TEXT,
stat_type IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL
);
index_name
Specify the name of the index to describe. This must be a CONTEXT index.
report
Specify the CLOB locator to which to write the report. If report is NULL, a session-duration temporary CLOB will be created and returned. It is the caller’s responsibility to free this temporary CLOB as needed.
The report CLOB will be truncated before report is generated, so any existing contents will be overwritten by this call.
part_name
Specify the name of the index partition. If the index is a local partitioned index, then part_name must be provided. INDEX_STATS will calculate the statistics for that index partition.
frag_stats
Specify TRUE to calculate fragmentation statistics. If frag_stats is FALSE, the report will not show any statistics relating to size of index data. However, the operation should take less time and resources to calculate the token statistics.
list_size
Specify the number of elements in each compiled list. list_size has a maximum value of
1000.
report_format
Specify whether the report should be generated as ‘TEXT’ or as ‘XML’. TEXT is the default. You can also specify the values CTX_REPORT.FMT_TEXT or CTX_REPORT.FMT_XML.
stat_type
Specify the estimated statistics to output. If this parameter is set, then frag_stats is ignored. The possible values are:
| Statistics Type | Description |
|---|---|
EST_FRAG_STATS |
Get the estimated fragmentation stats for the index. When this type is given, list_size is ignored. |
EST_FREQUENT_TOKENS |
Get the estimated frequently queried tokens for the index. You can give a value of up to 100 for list_size. |
EST_TOKENS_TO_OPTIMIZE |
Show best tokens to optimize, based on frequency of querying and fragmentation. You can give a value of up to 100 for list_size. |
EST_SLOWEST_QUERIES |
Show slowest running queries for the index. You can give a value of up to 100 for list_size. |
Note:
The estimated statistics for stat_type is only available if query_stats is enabled and the following privileges must be granted to the user running the report:
grant select, insert, delete, update on ctxsys.dr$slowqrys to <user>;
grant select, insert, delete, update on ctxsys.dr$freqtoks to <user>;
Example for CTX_REPORT.INDEX_STATS
create table output (result CLOB);
declare
x clob := null;
begin
ctx_report.index_stats('tdrbprx21',x);
insert into output values (x);
commit;
dbms_lob.freetemporary(x);
end;
/
set long 32000
set head off
set pagesize 10000
select * from output;
The following sample output is for INDEX_STATS on a context index. This report has been truncated for clarity. It shows some of the token statistics and all of the fragmentation statistics.
The fragmentation statistics are at the end of the report. It tells you optimal row fragmentation, an estimated amount of garbage data in the index, and a list of the most fragmented tokens. Running CTX_DDL.OPTIMIZE_INDEX cleans up the index.

These metadata are available only when QUERY_STATS is turned on for the index: estimated fragmentation stats, estimated frequently queried tokens, estimated most fragmented frequently queried token, and estimated slowest running queries for the specified index.
CTX_REPORT.INDEX_STATS will also output information on dr$indexname$S table, which is the section data, or SDATA, table.
