Although the wait per enqueue is high, it is not where the majority of wait time is being spent. I would be more concerned about the full table scans as indicated by the 'db scattered read events'.
If you can capture the sid in v$session_wait for this event, you can track down the object being full table scanned and the offending SQL. Perhaps it is normal, perhaps not. It could be driving longer waits on sequential reads and potentially enqueues for the ST enqueue (your dump did not actually reveal anything waiting on an enqueue, just holding them. again only 147 instances of where a wait actually occurred over a 12 or 24 hour period is pretty low). --- "Baker, Barbara" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > List: > We've been fighting problems for several days.
