Amir,

is there a particular EBS process that you are seeing this problem with?

I have also identified statements that were suffering from the 'gc' waits shown above. The underlying segments of those statements have 'freelist groups' defined as '1'. This is an EBS system which has been around for a long time. It was upgraded from 11.0.3 to 11i several years ago and that is most likely why 'freelist groups' of most of the standard segments is '1'.
