I suggest you check the amount of disk sort activity (v$sysstat, v$sesstat). If there are numerous disk sorts taking place, you may want to consider raising Sort_Area_Size and Sort_Area_Retained_Size. Also, if the sorting (to disk) is taking place mainly in the batch processes, consider changing these parameters only for those sessions. Changing these parameters at instance level may waste system memory.
