Don,

As Jonathan pointed out, AUTOTRACE cannot be relied upon. Rather, I would
look at V$SESSTAT from another session for the identified SID - this
provides some additional details, especially about PQ. Specifically, look
for Statistics (join V$STATNAME) 'where upper(name) like '%PARALLEL%'' - you
will be gently surprised s'all I can say :) You also did not mention the
number of CPUs you have (although I note that you have set
parallel_threads_per_cpu). Be aware that although you did not set
LARGE_POOL, this will automatically be derived.

And I have to disagree with Mladen here on the flushing bit - since this is
a DW, I wouldn't mind flushing the shared pool, as I can understand why you
did it. Of course, he did point out the syntax error! 

PQ (in a controlled fashion) can be a boon in DWs, but I have seen it really
bite in an OLTP environment.
