The book covers 8i (8.1.7.4), 9iR2 (9.2.0.6) and 10gR1 (10.1.0.4), so I was keen on running the same tests on 10gR2 and 11gR1.
In the course of doing this I'll attempt to point out if there are any results that are noteworthy.
Before I begin here are the preparation steps and configuration details required to reproduce the test cases.
The INIT.ORA parameters relevant to the optimizer used for 10.2.0.4 and 11.1.0.6 have been taken from the sample INIT.ORAs provided as part of test case code depot. The INIT.ORAs used look like the following:

;
An appropriate user has also been created that will host the test case objects:
create user cbo_test identified by cbo_test;
grant dba to cbo_test;
alter user cbo_test default tablespace test_8k;
I'm starting off with the test cases provided as part of the introduction and chapter one - "What do you mean by cost?".
These two chapters use only three scripts, and here are the results when applying them to 10.2.0.4 and 11.1.0.6.
The first script comes from the preface, is called "in_list.sql" and shows an error of the 8i optimizer that has been fixed from 9i on.

So no surprises here, works as expected, and the results correspond to those of 9iR2 and 10gR1.
The next script comes from chapter 1 ("What do you mean by cost?") and is called "first_rows.sql". It shows potential problems that may arise from the approach the optimizer takes when using the (deprecated) FIRST_ROWS optimizer mode.

ִִִ-ִcpuִcostingִisִoffִ(considerִenablingִit)
The results in general correspond to those of the previous versions, but one interesting oddity showed up when I did the first test runs. The cost reported by my 10gR2 and 11gR1 systems for the query variations performing an ORDER BY was significantly higher than what is shown in the results that have been provided by Jonathan as part of the code depot.
It looks like the difference comes from the higher cost estimated for the ORDER BY sort. Further investigations showed that Jonathan probably performed the test runs using manual workarea_size_policy with 1M sort_area_size whereas I did the first test runs using the instance default setting of an pga_aggregate_target of 200M (see INIT.ORA parameters above).
The odd thing is that when turning CPU costing off ("_optimizer_cost_model"="io") then for that particular test case performing that tiny sort operation the cost of the sort is actually increasing when the amount of memory available for sorting is increasing. That means in other words, the higher the amount memory available the higher the cost of the small sort operation, due to the fact that the "IO cost per pass" in the optimizer trace file (10053 event) is higher if more memory is available and therefore the final IO cost of the sort is, too.
I was able to reproduce this strange behaviour in 9.2.0.8, 10.2.0.4 and 11.1.0.6. Due to the higher total cost when running the test case with more memory available I had to adjust the "_sort_elimination_cost_ratio" parameter accordingly used in the "first_rows.sql" example to get the same results. See the script for further explanation of this parameter.
All other parameters that I tried (using manual/automatic pga sizing, "all_rows" optimizer_mode instead of "first_rows") didn't change the outcome. When I was using "io" cost model I got in this particular case a consistent increase in I/O cost per pass when increasing the memory available for sorting.
I won't put further effort on this issue for the time being as there is a whole chapter (chapter 13) coming up later that covers sorting related issues in depth, so I'll see if I'm able to dig further there.
The final script from chapter 1 is called "view_merge_01.sql" and demonstrates the complex view merging transformation that can happen to your statement as part of the optimisation steps.

The results correspond to those from the previous versions.
Conclusion for part 1: For first three scripts I couldn't detect any significant differences to the previous versions. A small oddity showed up regarding the I/O cost of a tiny sort operation when disabling the cpu_costing, but that could also be reproduced in 9.2.0.8, so that's not an actual difference to previous versions.
Because I have to use this silly dot character instead of space in order to keep a reasonable formatting in this blogger environment, I'll provide an updated code depot that contains the scripts and results I used for this series.
You can download it from here: My homepage (SQLTools++, an open source lightweight SQL Oracle GUI for Windows)
I'll update it from time to time when I do significant changes, and each time I add a new part to the series you'll find the updated code depot there as well.
The original code depot (still maintained by Jonathan) can be found here.
