Huge Database - Performance Problem

Oracle gurus:
I inherited a large ( 8.2 Gig ) Oracle 7.1.3 database running on an Alpha box 6.1 OS and am having some performance problems. The application is 2-tier client-server architecture where a user connects to a server process which then acts as an interface between the 14 table Oracle database and a large chemical structural database. The top-level table has 1.5 million rows which then join down to the remaining tables with an average of 3 million rows in the remaining tables. The top-level table also links to the structural database which has .6 million structures.
I have the data tablespaces and indexes spread out over 3 disks respectively and indexes are created in logical places.
Am I missing something or do I need an Oracle tuning specialist ?
Option #1:
Cluster the table data and indexes Option#2: Compress the 14 tables into some logical combinations so I don't have so many joins. Option #3: Index more columns. ( and buy 3 more disks <sic>)
At my wits end,
Cliff
