Tuning of SQL code is generally cheaper than changing the data model.
Physical and configuration tuning involves a search for bottlenecks that
often points to SQL code or data model issues. Building an appropriate
data model and writing properly performing SQL code can give 100%+
performance improvement. Physical and configuration tuning often gives
at most a 25% performance increase. Gavin Powell shows that the central
theme of Oracle10gR2 Performance Tuning is four-fold: denormalize data
models to fit applications; tune SQL code according to both the data
model and the application in relation to scalability; create a
well-proportioned physical architecture at the time of initial Oracle
installation; and most important, mix skill sets to obtain the best
results.
