It’s time for another landmark. The blog has just hit 2,500,000 views (taking three weeks less than the previous half million increment) – here’s a little breakdown on the numbers.
First the top five across the lifetime of the blog:
| AWR / Statspack menu | 40,714 | Updated from time to time |
| NOT IN | 33,983 | Feb 2007 |
| Cartesian Merge Join | 29,633 | Dec 2006 |
| dbms_xplan in 10g | 28,831 | Dec 2006 |
| SQL Profiles (10g) | 21,227 | Feb 2007 |
If we look at just the last year, the top five are:
| AWR / Statspack menu | 18,782 | Updated from time to time |
| NOT IN | 8,916 | Feb 2007 |
| dbms_xplan in 10g | 6,212 | Dec 2006 |
| Oracle Core | 6,181 | Dec 2011 |
| Analysing Statspack (1) | 5,924 | Nov 2006 |
The Cartesian Merge Join has finally been pushed off the top 5 in recent history, but perhaps that’s only a temporary effect while the Addenda to Oracle Core is still fresh in people’s minds. It’s interesting to see how many old articles are still popular reading, though.
The other statistic of note is the number of followers the blog has, currently: 828

Does your follower count adequately account for those of us who use, e.g., Google Reader as their viewer? I figure they only use one HTTP connection to poll your RSS feed for however many of their users are subscribed.
