Nope.  The "scattered reads" are just the I/O requests to read the info in
SYS.SEG$ from the datafile.  There's no better way to do it...

Why are you concerned about this?  Is it taking a huge amount of time per
wait?  Is this query being executed often?  If so, then why?  The number of
such waits is unavoidable (i.e. SEG$ is usually as big as it needs to be),
but the duration per wait might be something to investigate, if it is
considered excessive...
