Hello ,

Thanks for the inputs & URL. Its really nice. Based on that I am now trying to find out segments where really contention occurs. But till now I have not come across 'Buffer Busy' in v$session_wait. Mostly I get 'db file scattered/sequential read'

Same case I have logged with Oracle Support. Interestingly they claim no issues with FreeList. I also saw 'Buffer Bust Waits' in utlestat but they are negligible as per Oracle Support.

Following is the extract of Utlestat ...

Now management has added CPU on the machine. But I would also like to get root cause of it. Will it be worth to change Freelist for some tables where contention is occuring via alter table ?

Thanks & Regards,
