Rafiq, I ran your query as we have been in the process of tuning our shared pool, and I have a question. When you see many more loads than executions for a given table, is it a safe bet that the application in question is executing queries that have that table in the from clause, but it is not being used by that query ? For example, a table has 33 loads and 5 executions. Could I say that 28 loads were caused by a query that had that table referenced, but not used (and causing a full table scan, because that's what Oracle does when you reference, but do not use, a table (in the from clause) ?
