Thank you sir, for tolerating with me and my questions. I'm on 9204 and I
haven't touched system statistics before. Now I'm already at
tahiti.oracle.com and reading the manuals... I'll let you know once I find
it working on my DB. Thanks a lot for the kick start. -Jessica

You did not mention the Oracle version you are using (a cardinal sin when 
asking for advice). If you are on Oracle 9, use system statistics to give 
the optimizer exactly that information about the server load. Oracle 10 
expands on that.
