The following SQL statement has been identified to perform poorly. It currently takes up to 16 mins to execute, but it's supposed to take a second at most.

SQL> 

SELECT Object_Class,
2 Object_Sub_Class,
3 Object_Category,
4 Object_Key,
5 Object_ID,
6 Object_Name,
7 IsHidden,
8 Sharing_Key,
9 Ownership_Key,
10 PictureSheet_Key,
11 HasPictureBlob
12 FROM Objects
13 WHERE Deletion_Flag <> 'Y' AND (Sharing_Key IN (0, 3375705, 1199264));

42345 rows selected.

I'm looking forward for suggestions how to improve the performance of this statement.

Sixteen minutes for 5140 consistent gets? You have a problem that is not related to the SQL: something is blocking your session. To begin the diagnosis, while it is executing run this from a another session a few times:
select event,seconds_in_wait from v$session where wait_class<>'Idle';

None of those wait events are to do with the session being blocked, so I have no idea why a query that reads only 5000 blocks would take so long. Sorry.
You'll have to do a proper analysis. I would start by using dbms_monitor to trace the session, with wait events. tkprof the trace file (with sys=no aggregate=no) and perhaps it will become clearer.

is query launched from DB Server?
is query launched from from remote client?

>2920666 bytes sent via SQL*Net to client
>2824 SQL*Net roundtrips to/from client
it appears to me that it just took a while to push the results across the wire back to the client
about 15 records per each round trip.

What datatypes are the columns? Are you selecting any lobs?

  1* select  42345/2824 from dual
SQL> /

42345/2824
----------
14.9946884


which is close enough to 15 for me.

15 is the default arraysize for SQL*Plus. To test,
SET ARRAYSIZE 5000
and run again. This will reduce the round-trips to bout 10, and is the maximum size SQL*Plus permits.
