RE: data block waits

Hi Ruth,

Try running the system_times.sql script from the Ixora web site. If 'buffer busy waits' is near the top and represents a significant proportion of the total times, then you may have correctly identified the problem.

Dear Listers,

When I query v$waitstat I get a large number for the class data block and my database is running very slowly. Are these two things related and is there anything I can do?

As always, thank you for any light you can shed.
