Thanks, Surachart. This indeed solved the issue. I thought DBMS_STATS is the same as ANALYZE... but now I know better!

I wonder about that as well.
My avg row length is 31 with dbms_stats, 35 with analyze, and 29.8 when I compute it myself using vsize. Its not a big or meaningful difference, but I wonder what are they doing differently.
