Hi Adar
  Of course, that makes sense :-)

   PGA_Aggregate_target plays important role in SORT calculations. If that
value is set lower in one instance, then execution plan can be very
different between instances, at least, that was the case with a recent
customer issue.

   I had few of those adventures and mostly boils down to PGAT differences.
Differences in few other parameters can matter too.
