Hmmm...that's a possibility.  However, the query is blowing out a
2GB temp space that is empty when the query starts.  I'll check
and play with this field anyway.

Thanks,

The order by is dong a sort and you have insufficient sort space 
configured so it is doing it to disk and that is the temp tablespace or 
whatever is allocated as the users temporary tablespace. I suspect that 
this database has the smallest SGA for any of the databases you have 
tested.
You might like to investigate the SORT_AREA_SIZE parameter or maybe just 
look at increasing the available memory to the instance.



Cheers
