Hi all.
I understand this can be a ridiculous question for most you.

The very same query on the very same db shows very variable
timings. I'm the only one client on an unpupolated server so I'd
expect a rather constant timing.

What's really weird is that after some time the timings get back to
normal. With no explicit action. Then, later, timings get worse again.

I fear it can be a "DBA problem" but but still have no clue.

So what's the computer doing? If it is the "very same" query on the "very same" data then something else must be happening in the background. Check the output of top/vmstat (or Windows equivalents) when this happens and see if there's a clue.
