If memory serves this can happen with migrated rows, multi-block rows, and/or
multi-piece rows. Or at least some of those reasons.
Oracle is going to want the contents of your row to be contiguous in your
export file, so it needs all the pieces. I can’t remember what happens with
in-line and out of line binary object columns.

Subject: expdp - cell single block physical read/ read request
Hi
Oracle 12.2.0.1 Exadata
I am running a datapump and two of the workers are spending a lot of time on
- cell single block physical read
- cell single block read request
This does not make sense to me as it is full expdp I would expected a full
table scan type of wait, not single block
I checked mos but my search did not find anything related to my version
Does anyone know of any reason why this might happen?
