This is an Oracle 11i application 11.5.9) and  the database version is
9.2.0.6 (64-bit). The thing that is surprising me is that there are no
RAC specific waits. It is the CPU usage that is going high. I am sure
there is an explanation to this and that is what I am trying to find
out.

Do you have any degree of parallelism? or is parallel degree set to
default?

In general, A well behaved app will perform approx the same on RAC maybe
even marginally slower. A poorly behaved app will absolutely stink when
moved to RAC. RAC is not a performance enhancing solution.
