For the tables and indexes, did you set degree AND instances to 1 ? If you have degree = 1 and instances = default, it is possible (but I can't check it right now) that this will still allow Oracle to run a query with DOP as "degree x instances" - which in your case means parallel 2.

Normal, homegrown queries started running in parallel. How can this happen if the degree is 1 for all objects?
Is there a way to set parallel_max_servers > 1 for streams, and not have PQ option running on our application objects?
