This can not be good!?

Wait Events fine, but the gc times are sick.

This was a rather shot inverval between statspack.snap's  (taken later at night 
less busy).

>>is this one of your top 5 wait events ?

I have not run a statspack recently and regarding sessions I have been seeing 
all day, "No".
Very few RAC related waits today if any, but I have seen them inexplicably in 
the past.
Node2 for us is always idle, no db sessions....so RAC waits should be NULL or 
minimal always...but that is not always the case.

Also, things (load, waits, etc.) were much less in general with node 2 instance 
down for the past few days.

        col "Average Time" format 999.999
        SELECT V$SYSSTAT.VALUE*10 / (select value from v$sysstat where
name = 'global cache gets')  "Average Time"
        FROM V$SYSSTAT
        WHERE V$SYSSTAT.NAME = 'global cache get time'
        /
        Average Time
        ------------
