Robyn,
I would say that the use of the system statistics this way is valid.
Those are the real numbers Oracle is seeing while you collect the system
statistics. You want to make sure the numbers are consistent before
drawing conclusions (what you did) and not a one-time aberration because
of special circumstances. But you want to do that anyways and not let
the optimizer make decisions based on an erratic spike.
What EMC system did you have and what did you swap it for? If you don't
mind me asking. You can e-mail me privately if you don't want to blast
that information to the world.
