If you aren't experiencing performance problems, the best thing to do 
is nothing.

>From the docs ( Designing and Tuning for Performance )

To determine whether your system is experiencing latch contention, begin 
by determining whether there is LRU latch contention for any individual 
latch. 

SELECT CHILD#, SLEEPS / GETS RATIO
FROM V$LATCH_CHILDREN
WHERE NAME = 'cache buffers lru chain';


The miss ratio for each LRU latch should be less than 3%. A ratio above 3% 
for any particular latch is indicative of LRU latch contention and should 
be addressed.
You can determine the buffer pool to which the latch is associated as 
follows: 

SELECT NAME 
FROM V$BUFFER_POOL
WHERE lo_setid <= child_latch_number 
AND hi_setid >= child_latch_number;

List,

I have a question regarding db_block_lru_latches, I have read in some
book(can't remember) which the best number for this parameter is (number 
of
CPU)*6 or db_block_buffers/50.
But these two result is diffrent,anybody have any idea what's the best
configuration for this parameter.
In my configuration it has been set to 1 as default and I have two CPU so 
it
means it should be 6*2 = 12?is it right?
Thanks allot for your recommendation.
