Updating statistics in a production environment

Oracle recommends that you analyze all tables and indexes for better performance. The trial setup process creates statistics for your trial. As you add patient data to the trial, it is important to refresh these statistics periodically. In a production environment, refreshing once per day during the maintenance window is usually sufficient.

Note: Do not use the dbms_utility.analyze_schema with the COMPUTE or the FOR TABLES option on any production servers. The recommended procedure is to analyze each table and index with the ESTIMATE option (35 percent is adequate).
