I have encountered this on one of my RAC node which someone is doing
'select *" from a table with thousands of partitions. This note helped
me: 786507.1 HOW TO FIND BLOCKING SESSION FOR MUTEX WAIT EVENT cursor:
pin S wait on X

Does anyone know what would cause a lot of "cursor: pin X wait on S" 
waits in a RAC system?  I've read it might be due to a lot of hard 
parsing, but that doesn't seem to be the case in our system, yet one of 
our main queries has high concurrency waits due to this.

Thanks,
Stuart
