multiblock read count question

Why would I be getting the same response time on full scans if the multiblock read count is set to 2 or 32?

System:
Oracle 8.1.7 block size 8k

Sun 4500
2-5200 drives
Veritas
stripe = 4 drives with 256k interleave size = 1M stripe size. max i/o = 1M

I change the user sessions multiblock read count to 2 and do a full scan on a table and sum up a column.
It takes aprox 9 min to scan 60,043,128 rows 430080 blocks.

I change the user sessions multiblock read count to 32 run the same query and it takes about the same time. Received on Wed Jun 20 2001 - 09:14:08 CDT
