Can we increase the value of the CPU_COUNT database parameter on our production database server to gain the performance benefits?
Post By: admin

Oracle database engine calculates and sets this parameter automatically and it is not recommended to adjust this parameter until it is set to a wrong value or suggested by Oracle Support. Various Oracle RDBMS kernel functions use this parameter for various calculations especially Oracle CBO uses this parameter if CPU costing is enabled. If you intentionally increase value of this parameter to a value different from thel # of CPUs calculated by Oracle database engine, then you are inviting performance implications on that database.
