Hi Greg,
I meant to ask previously, but didn't. Are there any changes to system stat
calculation for exadata? You earlier talked about getting stats
representative, I wonder (in the absence of an exadata play box), how
representative the system stat IO and CPU costing is in this environment?

This is actually a poor recommendation.  Using a "estimate_percent=>null"
will be very very costly and since the OP is on 11g (11.2 in fact as he is
on Exadata V2), the default value for estimate_percent of
dbms_stats.auto_sample_size is much faster and usually within
>99% accuracy of a 100% sample.

More details on why:
