what does tkprof tell you about a) the number of waits b) the average time waited. I'd lay a pound to a penny that b) was reasonable and a) was either unreasonable, or there were a very few very long waits on sqnet message from client - i.e the user or app. showing the tkprof out put would of course mean that we didn't have to guess at these figures.
