Hello,

I've have a system where the most buffer waits are spent on system tables like
SYS.DBMS_ALERT_INFO
and SYS.DBMS_LOCK_ALLOCATED

Would it help to convert the system tablespace from dictionary managed to locally managed?

There should be NO dictionary managed tablespaces in these days.

The only solution is then to recreate the database with a LMT SYSTEM tablespace.

Ah! There are some improvements in the package I didn't see... maybe because DBCA still creates a database with a DMT SYSTEM tablespace and many clients have to fix it...

Note there is one more condition in 11.2 than in 10.2: "The SYSAUX tablespace is offline"... I won't be very confident on this procedure. Wink

sysaux tablespace should be offline so that we can migrate the system tablespace from DMT to LMT using procedure ' DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.TABLESPACE_MIGRATE_TO_LOCAL '
