Steve,

Thanks very much for your thoughts. I suspected it was an I/O problem as well but the problem is recently due to a very large data migration project that is happening. The storage system is an EMC with dedicated drives for REDO and ARCHIVE logs. I will check the waits closer.

Thanks again.
