Here's what I just got from OWS:
----------------------------------------
"After further research, this is a known issue that has development feed
back as follows:
BUG:1348362 'SQL EXECUTION' INFORMATION IN V$SESSION_LONGOPS IS INACCURATE
WHEN SORTING
Status: 92,Closed, Not a Bug
This is not a bug.. it is expected behaviour. As PQ relies on several slave
processes to complete their partial work and report the statistics, and a
co-ordinator to aggregate them and update the statistics, it is inherent in
PQ execution model that updates to statistics is not smooth and in some
particular cases it is possible that execution is 100% complete before
updates are made. So I think it should be treated as limition of our PQ
architecture rather than as a bug. Any attempt to guaruntee the smoothness
of progress of 'SQL Execution' operation will call for change in design and
architecture of PQ execution model. So I would treat this as not a bug, but
a limitation which can not be fixed."
----------------------------------------
NOW THAT WAS ENTERTAINING!!! :-)
Oracle Customer: Looks like a bug, walks like a bug, talks like a bug...
Oracle Support: No, it's really just another innocuous insect.

Well here's what's curious...
Notice the changing SID-serial# with the same sql address and hash.
Notice how elapsed seconds gyrates. Elapsed seconds goes from zero to
447,507,719 yet there were only a few seconds between the queries. How can a
session with 447,507,719 seconds of elapsed time suddenly appear??? Why are
there sessions going back to November when the computer hasn't even been up
that long? None of the sessions in V$SESSION_LONGOPS are in V$SESSION. The
sql
address and hash is not extant in V$SQL, V$SQLAREA, etc. Is this view
supposed to behave this way?

No it is not broken, unless someone explicitly updates underlying
information it is not visible .... I monitor this when I am creating or
rebuilding indexes to importing ... at that time Oracle will populate
relevant fields, and that is really useful.

Is my V$SESSION_LONGOPS view broken?
Check out the curious results below. Notice the changing SID-serial# and how
elapsed seconds gyrates. None of the below sessions are in V$SESSION. The
sql address and hash is not extant in V$SQL, V$SQLAREA, etc. (Note, we are
using PQO with timed statistics.)
