I would second that opinion - although my recent Support experiences don't seem to have reached 10 so I am still waiting for the 1. I've largely given up on Oracle support, especially after a support analyst ( supposedly one of their "top guns" ) wrote this in an SR after reviewing a 10046 trace I sent ( emphasis mine ):
<quote>
In the TKPROF output which looks at Query Parse, Fetch, and Execute
times: CPU is the "Expected Oracle clocked time to perform this step
of the query"
Elapsed on the other hand is the "actual time it took to perform the
Execution" of the query
Under most circumstances we would expect the CPU and Elapsed time to
maintain close to a 1:1 ratio
This means Oracle expects the Clock time to be XXX seconds and the
Elapsed time ends up being ~ XXX seconds
</quote>
At least after challenged on this statement about cpu time in the 10046 trace he corrected his stand.
I tend to let others deal with Oracle support. Life is too short for that kind of aggravation.
