Right on the dot with examples.

Tuning from the Metal Up

If you want one book to help you figure out how to get better performance from your Oracle system, this is it. It is written for the real world, not to pass an exam. As such, it goes well beyond Oracle, clearly explaining how the underlying hardware and system architecture affect performance, including examples from the author's experience. Good overview of RAC also. A great value!
