Performance Tuning

Hello newsgroup!
We are running an Oracle V6.0.34.2.1 RDBMS on DEC ULTRIX 4.4 box and
are having some major performance difficulties. For some reason or
another, the load seems to "spike" (today it reached over 100) and
eventually go back down. My entire week has been spent wading through
the Oracle Performance Tuning Guide, O'Reiley's Oracle Performance
Tuning, and just plan old-fashioned trying to digest the information
that monitor throws at you.
What I would like, if possible, is some solid advice from some people
who have had performance problems and some of the things you looked for
to fix it. I realize that no one can provide a magical solution without
seeing the actual configuration, so what I am asking for is advice and
some known (or little know) "gotchas". The Unix SysAdmin and I are both
pulling our hair out, and the users have little dart boards with our
pictures hanging above their desks.
Advice is desperately asked for, sought, begged for, pleaded for, and
cherished. If possible, please reply directly to me since I don't get
a lot of time to peruse the news. (However, post if you need to and I WILL
find the message).
Thanks!
