Abstract: A method for intelligent query plan cache size management can be implemented. During execution of a plurality of incoming queries in a database management system, the method can measure actual compilation times of generating query execution plans for the plurality of incoming queries. The database management system can have a query execution plan cache which has a size that can store at least some of the query execution plans. The method can monitor differences between the actual compilation times and ideal compilation times of generating query execution plans for the plurality of incoming queries. The ideal compilation times can be estimated by assuming no query execution plan is evicted from the query execution plan cache. The method can adjust the size of the query execution plan cache based on the monitored differences.
