you may want to raise a call with Oracle support about this. We have an call
open with them at present and they have raised a bug for us. We were
noticing the same thing as you experienced on AIX 5L 9i RAC 9.2.0.3.
Apparently Oracle is interpreting exectly the same statements that ran in
minutes on 8i, differently to the way it reads them in 9i (where execution
times went up to something like 22 hours !!!)

Hi All,
I am running a big batch reporting program that does way too much SQL (but
that's another story)
and when I profile the trace file apart from one pice of SQL all the others
are only doing 1 block reads.
As you can see from the example below it did 63,209 physical IO calls and
they were all for one block only
Even though it's via Primary Key why doesn't Oracle get even more than one
block per read if the index range scan is long?
This is just an example from about 45 SQL statements that have the one block
reads only.
My multi block read count is 64 on an 8K blocksize, oracle 9.2

I would have thought I would get more like one of the rare statements that
gets 75% at 64 blocks per read.
ie.

Thanks for any direction to the answer I can be given, just so I can
understand more about what's happening
Thanks :-)
