  1. If you have optimal set to a number less than 10 extents or so, increase it to size of 20 extents. This way the extents that the select is looking at are less likely to have been written over or shrunk.
  2. You may want to just increase the number of rollback segments. That way you will also reduce the probability that one transaction will get around to using the rollback extents that the long query was still trying to get through.

To review: more extents at optimal (not to more than 30 probably) and/or more rollback segments.
I hope that helps.
