I smell a learning opportunity here! Those waits are interesting to me because I can't find any corroborating evidence in AIX that it's an issue. The only thing I see is mild page fault spikes, but I've yet to correlate them with anything, as I haven't found that it's been overtly detrimental to performance. Then again, from the AAS screenshots in your links, our servers are on vastly different scales. :) Thanks much! That gives me the perfect bit of info I need to continue investigating this (in my "spare" time!). Rich -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
