A
library cache hit means that when parsing a statement the object definition is already found in the cached data dictionary (likely it has been recently used). A library cache miss means that it aint there.

Now if
you can explain to your line of business boss why you would wish to improve the ratio of one to the other by allocating some memory that could be used for something else to the library cache (located in the shared pool), then go right ahead.

On the
other hand you might have a real performance problem (my report runs for 1.5 hours and it only used to run for 3 minutes),  these sorts of problems generally have a different underlying cause than finding objects in memory rather than on disk, 80 % of the time or thereabouts its the sql, 10% or there abouts its the data.
