The two sources I'm aware of, aside from the Oracle documentation, are the series of Oracle Magazine articles and Don Burleson's book Oracle9i High-Performance Tuning with STATSPACK.
Also, be aware of the limitation of STATSPACK. Statistics are aggregated in two dimensions - by time (the interval you take snapshots) and by all processes on the system. Cary Millsap does a great job of pointing out the limitations of methods that perform these aggregations. My personal analogy is: "You can drown in a river that is only an average of three feet deep".

Subject: Statspack Report
Evening;
Does there happen to be any 'definitive' set of documentation on
interpreting the reports given out by Statspack ?
I just set it up for the first time and could use any 'direction' on what is the best documentation set for it.
Thanks
Kevin
