We aren't gathering OS statistics as of now. Are there
any drawbacks of using the same? 

In case I start gathering OS stats, how do I relate
the OS System Call CPU time to a particular session?

Does this value get added to the CPU values in 10046
trace files? If not, then I won't gather much
information about the process by gathering OS stats.

New DBA
