I can say some more point (I had such problem) related to Oracle and Java 
performance.

When you try a loop of requests over the database as suggested Maarten,
try to see also how is configured Oracle.
For instance, Oracle can have two levels of pool of connections :
- one from the application point of vue (using dbcp.BasicDataSource for 
instance as you said)
- another one using thread pool of connection directly in Oracle
Both can be used.
By default, in Oracle, 1 connection from the application is 1 
thread/connection in Oracle,
so 10000 connections = 10000 threads.connections in the Oracle server.
In this mode, Oracle can have a limitation on accepting multiple connections 
(perhaps 8 in your case ?).
Using thread pool in Oracle, 1 connection from the application is still 1 
thread/connection
but using a pool of 200 directly in Oracle, 10 000 connections from 
applications
will means 200 connections. In fact, in this mode, requests are multiplexed 
so using less
thread/connection in Oracle.
What I want to say is looking only at the Java code might not be enough...

Also, if you can, recheck you use pooled connection since connect/disconnect
can be very heavy.
Finally, try to use a prepared statement instead of a standard statement
since Oracle will perform really faster. Even more, if you can, try to use a 
stored procedure.

what are the other values for BasicDataSource ?
initialSize, maxIdle, minIdle ?

How much threads is your mina app using ?

You could try to see how much insert/transactions your app can do per second
without using mina and loadrunner: just start x threads INSIDE your
application that do the db operations in a loop.
Then you know if it's mina related or not.
