Howdy,

we recently had to change from cs=force to cs=exact on our 9204 RAC
instances and now we are seeing a lot of latching issues (in descending
order per statspack)

* row cache objects
* row cache enqueue latch
* lib cache
* shared pool

Tom Kyte would probably shudder with disbelief when I tell you this app is
not exactly bind variable friendly. As we have started further analysis, I
am havign trouble getting adaquet docs about the row cache latches. What can
I do to find more information? How can I track more details about these
latches? This app heavily uses GTTs that have multiple indexes.

Here is a sample output from gv$rowcache ....
SELECT inst_id, parameter ,sum(gets) ,sum(getmisses)
    , 100*sum(gets - getmisses) / sum(gets)  pct_succ_gets
    , sum(modifications)                     updates
 FROM gV$ROWCACHE
WHERE gets > 0 GROUP BY inst_id, parameter order by 5 asc
/

inst_id                 parameter              gets       getmisses
pct_succ_gets    updates
