Thanks for the replies.    That makes some sense.    We have AUM in this =
database, and
I did notice that v$undostat was showing some out of space counts.

This is a purchased module for Informatica, and I don't have access to =
the the code,
but my understanding is that the core logic is basically a merge =
operation, Informatica
pre-caches the data and then loops and decides whether to insert or =
update a row in
the table.   =20

If the excess CPU were to do with undo being
applied, all the undo blocks visited would also
be recorded under the "query" count for the
fetch.

Assuming, that you're running on decent CPUs, it seems strange that 2371 =
consistent reads and 1 current read require 1,72 seconds of CPU time =
(even in the very unlikely event when CPU usage between every physical =
IO would heve been overaccounted due quantization error).

This PL/SQL loop, does it open a cursor and keep it open for a long =
time? That way several rollback segment block gets might be required to =
satisfy a consistent read, that could explain high CPU usage per LIO in =
extreme cases. (But it wouldn't explain why there is such a difference =
between two tables w. different indexes).

Maybe query definitions + execution plans would give some more clues...
