In early releases of 10.1 or 10.2 (cant quite recall) there were bugs related to running both AWR and STATSPACK that could cause contention for certain latches in the sql area. This was exacerbated by the fact that both snapshots ran at exactly the same time; at the top of the hour. Thus it was advised not to run both of them. I believe that these bugs have been all resolved in 11g.
