Hi!
How do you verify that your session is still waiting on sequential read?
>From v$session_event? Is the status column saying WAITING there? (if it says
WAITED%, then your CPU is doing something else already, and this record in
session wait just shows the last wait).
Tanel.

the files used by the lob segment which contains the varray data for the
value column of chanarch_nlc.arch_wave_i. Nothing appears to be blocking
