Big/huge segments do not hurt performance, they only consume space. Some queries (operations) against big segments can lead to "performance problems". So, I do not think that one should consider segment's size as an immediate performance problem.
v$session is not a segment you should worry about.

Hi,
Unrelated question : If the system tablespace is so big would it not hurt performance for queries to all_tables, v$session, dba_segments etc. In such a case : can tables like source$ be moved out of system tablespace and would it make sense. Thank You
