Hi Jack, It is a background wait, so unless user processes are waiting for DBWn in 'free buffer waits' or 'write complete waits' then you don't have a problem, no matter how big the 'db file parallel wait' numbers are.

Is this purely another indication of poor disk performance or should I be looking somewhere else?
