Hi Thanks Taral, but i alredy read the tom article before sending the question, and still not sure about event, cause the only thing about it in the article is: it is a dispatcher startup thing, highly (extremely) unlikely to be affecting you since the dispatchers would already be up and running when your application is going. Its not a very clear definition. I have search in Reference books of 10g and 11g and this wait event isnt there. So im trying to find more info about it, without luck, cause in ADDM report i can see too: RECOMMENDATION 1: Application Analysis, 100% benefit (7040 seconds) ACTION: Investigate the cause for high "dispatcher listen timer" waits. Refer to Oracle's "Database Reference" for the description of this wait event. SYMPTOMS THAT LED TO THE FINDING: SYMPTOM: Wait class "Network" was consuming significant database time. (100% impact [7040 seconds]) But without info about the event, i dont know if this recommendation is valid or not.
