Your statspack report detail says that the bulk of the (not much) work carried 
out in the period was contributed by statspack itself. 

7 wait seconds (across 25 application users) out of 7 minutes, and 12 cpu 
seconds used out of a possible 7 * 60 * 8 = 3360 (the statspack says you have 8 
cpus) is not worth wasting your time over. Just make sure that your work is 
well balanced across the RAC instances (not necessarily symmetrically). This 
load looks much lighter than the other example you have circulated (with gc 
buffer busy waits). And check statspack isn't being misled - eg if some 
statements were incomplete at the end of the period, their costs wouldn't be 
accumulated into the statspack views. Look at a report from snap 27 to 29, if 
you have one. And don't make the statspack periods too short in future ...
