Thanks Tanel.
I've modified the application sequences and noticed the overall miss ratio not 
improving. I discovered this sequence:

SYS.IDGEN1$

It has a cache_size of 1000; however, the last_number is updating by 10,000 
values per minute. I also posted this on MOC, but was hoping someone here might 
know about this sequence -


1.       What is it for?

2.       How to find if there is an issue causing it to update so rapidly

3.       Can one safely increase the cache size on it?

Thanks,

Jed

It's used for server alerting infrastructure (metrics thresholds, tablespace 
space etc)

DESC dba_outstanding_alerts
DESC dbms_server_alert
SELECT * FROM v$alert_types;

I wouldn't worry about the miss ratio as this may be just due to the alerts 
being read infrequently (after they've been aged out from cache) and this 
number has accumulated over a long time...

Does anyone know what this particular item is, and why it would have such a 
high miss percentage?

Thanks,

Jed
