Charles,

Interesting figures.
A couple of follow-on questions:

    How much memory in the machine ?
    How many CPUs
    Were you running the client locally - ipc or tcp     How much CPU usage "outside" Oracle in each test     Any significant variation in 'prefetch' blocks     Any other significant variation in stats
