It’s time for another landmark. The blog hit 3,000,000 views on 30th November – but I’ve been too busy to do my usual analysis of posts. The latest half million took 42 weeks (five weeks less than the previous half million increment) and here are the latest stats on popular views:
First the top five across the lifetime of the blog (excluding the home page and opening menu) and the old faviourites haven’t changed:
| AWR / Statspack menu | 57,477 | Updated from time to time |
| NOT IN | 40.952 | Feb 2007 |
| Cartesian Merge Join | 33,367 | Dec 2006 |
| dbms_xplan in 10g | 33,279 | Dec 2006 |
| SQL Profiles (10g) | 25,219 | Feb 2007 |
If we look at just the last year, the top five are:
| AWR / Statspack menu | 19.307 | Updated from time to time |
| Oracle Core | 9.996 | Dec 2011 |
| Shrink Tablespace | 8,788 | Feb 2010 |
| AWR Reports | 8,548 | Feb 2011 |
| NOT IN | 8,026 | Feb 2007 |
A couple of old favourites (dbms_xplan in 10g and SQL Profiles (10g) have finally fallen off the top slots, and Cartesian Merge Join didn’t make it back after slipping last year – but it’s interesting (and not entirely surprising) to see how NOT IN is still coming up after so many years.
The other statistic of note is the number of followers the blog has, currently 1,197 (although it was 1,185 on 30th Nov – I probably picked up a few more immediately after the UKOUG annual conference).
Google reader says, that the blog has 7 907 subscribers :)

That’s due to the fact that wordpress ignore rss subscribers :-)

[…] figures for the previous half million views (opens in a new window) are similar for most of the top 5, although last year had a big spike for […]
