Total wait time for "control file sequential read" is 7 seconds. Is that significant ? Was the StatsPack snapshot for a duration of 10 minutes ? 1 hour ? -> Period between the Statspack Snapshots = 6.97 minutes Snapshot Snap Id Snap Time Sessions Curs/Sess Comment ~~~~~~~~ ---------- ------------------ -------- --------- ------------------- Begin Snap: 27 23-Feb-07 17:53:38 70 16.1 End Snap: 28 23-Feb-07 18:00:36 80 18.3 Elapsed: 6.97 (mins) Why do you think "control file sequential read" waits would be tempered by "transaction be grouped logically so that transactions hit different data blocks" ? -> That is a Question & I do NOT know if "grouping transactions" has any impact on the "control file sequential read" wait. -> Seek your Advice on this.
