That's how myths start. That was true for Oracle 8 and earlier. As of 
Oracle 9 you should be OK analyzing catalog tables. Oracle has by now 
strewn lots of /*+ rule */ hints in the recursive sql to eliminate/minimize 
the performance hits experienced before. I doubt that there is a need for 
it though (analyzing sys tables that is). Maybe if you have some homegrown 
scripts that join catalog tables/views in ways not foreseen by the 
developers or with other tables, statistics on the sys tables may help.
