I'm not sure what you're asking here...  

Seeing what's going on with the CBO without statistics is a bit like asking 
what's going on with your car without all that gasoline getting in the way.  
You can discard statistics with dbms_stats.delete_table_stats, 
delete_schema_stats, or delete_database_stats, but that will cause Oracle to 
revert to the rule-based optimizer for most queries.  When a query requires the 
use of the CBO, it will have to make what are essentially guesses as to the 
table composition in the absence of statistics.

Hi, All,

  Our database is CBO based. I would like to see what's going on without those 
collected statistics on tables and indexes. Is there any way to discard these 
collected statistics?

TIA,
