In order for sequence not to become a "bottle neck", use "cache" option.

Subject: RE: Find the table's name that using sequences
Well, there could be business logic reasons as to why you would have one sequence per table.
Also, I don't know if I would ever go with one sequence for many tables,
sounds like a bottle neck to me. And how would one sequence for many
tables
impact scalability?? Or having lots of users hammering the database??
And
what happens if you have to reset the sequence, then you have to check
the
primary key values on many tables. One sequence to one table sounds
good to
me, but I would love to hear pros/cons about this...

no table "uses" a sequence. And there is no reason (other than sanity checks) to have one sequence per table.
SQL code will use the sequence, usually to retrieve a value from the sequence to then insert into or update a column in a table.
