Ron,

You raw need numbers. Enable SAR statistics collection for this LUN/fs with 
only temporary datafiles. Let it run for min 3 days with 5 minute resolution 
to collect data. Then you could grep SAR output for exact LUN/fs for these 3 
days (using -f switch) and you would end up with data something like reads/s, 
writes/s, Kbs/s, avwait and avserv. Based on that values then you would 
decide what to do next...

Also you can look at this data in real-time: iostat -x is your friend.

How big is your PGA and SGA? What does PGA advisor tells you? What is your OS 
platform?
