Lothar,
Some extra CPU for the chain management is inevitable; though the difference is
rather dramatic so Stefan's comments are also relevant. It's also possible that
"the same plan" may also have done something different with predicates that
turned an access predicate into a filter predicate which could result in the
same number of blocks accessed in an index range scan (say) but a much larger
amount of work per index entry to filter out entries.

Hi Jonathan,
what also puzzles me is the CPU time. About the same number of buffer gets, but
10 times more CPU. Can't remember where I have seen that before.

Niall,
Given there are only 68K consistent gets for 31K blocks read I think that some
of the disk count must be from a tablescan or index fast full scan - which
might make the average seem less wonderful. Can't argue with the "check the
wait summary", though, for a quick check. Better still, the plan headed
Rowsource Operations" should show the time, disk and CR buffer gets accumulated
- so easy to see exactly where most of the time went.

The "slow" query does 30k disk accesses, the "fast" one 0. If the plans really
are identical then you've likely got your explanation right there. I would
personally want to doublecheck the summary wait information that TKPROF can
produce as well looks like you've got about 60s of wait time which would equate
to an average i/o time of 2ms which is actually pretty good (for disk).

Hi All,
I have two identical databases as far as versions, datasize OS etc is concerned
and have a query that produces an identical execution plan.
However this part of the 10046 trace is significantly different.
The slow query is on test (first listing) and is severely constricted in its
memory so my explanation would be that the tables involved are actually in the
buffer cache in prod (second listing) where the sga is much larger and
therefore no disk I/O is required.
I will be having a look at the buffer cache next to check what is in there
