Hi all,
I have a question about sp_sysmon output, more precisely the figures between 'task context switch due to cache search miss' and 'cache miss' in data cache management.
Let's take an example of sp_sysmon.
The task context switch due to cache search miss shows the number below
Cache Search Misses 22.6 43.3 13582 9.7 %
This number looks high and my data cache might not be well configured but if I look at the Data Cache Management section , I have
Cache Statistics Summary (All Caches)
-------------------------------------
per sec per xact count % of total
------------ ------------ ---------- ----------
Cache Search Summary
Total Cache Hits 15436.0 29495.5 9261597 99.9 %
Total Cache Misses 22.6 43.3 13586 0.1 %
Now the total cache misses looks fairly low and my data cache seems OK for me.
Could you explain me the difference between the 9.7% on one hand and the 0.1% on the other hand?
Thanks
Simon
