Joan

Can you trace in both sides and run both results through orasrp? It'll give you an overview over the waits and give wait histograms.

> I have compared the execution plans, they both are same. I created the new database on Linux and using datapump import the data from the source. The parameter are not much different, the memory_target set to 1000m on Linux, we use sga_target on Aix which is 700mb. The db_file_multiblock_read_count on AIX, it is 128 on Linux ( auto set).

Of course, the architecture are different, the storage is Netapps on Linux. From the awa report. 60% time is user IO waiting. I'm not sure how to read the following information, is it async io enabled?
