Do you use global temporary tables? (select owner,table_name from dba_tables where 
temporary='Y';)

If so the segments shown could be associated with that.

Hi,

Could someone shed some light on how v$sort_usage is 
populated? It is supposed to show active sorts in the 
database. If that is the case then I don't understand 
why I see the following:

1. An entry exists for a user/sort, yet according to 
v$session the session is NOT active.
2. Multiple entries exist for a user with the SAME 
session_addr. I don't understand how a session could 
have multiple sort segments.

As always, you're feedback is appreciated.

Thanks.
