There's a new background process is 11g called PING; in v$bgprocess it has
the description "interconnect latency measurement".  I'm setting up a
sandbox RAC system in vmware on a very CPU-starved box and noticed this
process high on my "top" output...  just wondering, does anyone know how to
disable it?  STATISTICS_LEVEL?  I'd imagine there's some hidden param that
can disable this and nothing else...  anyone know what it might be?
