If I allow Oracle 10g to automatically set the parameter db_multi_block_read_count, the value is determined to be 128 (8k blocksize). However, I ran across some comments that suggest in a RAC environment that this large size might be a bad choice, and it should be backed down to 8. I cannot find any info in statspack / AWR that suggests a smaller number is better in RAC.

Does anybody have further insight into this value in a RAC environment ?
