That's what we do with our Laredo product: capture SQL from various =
sources,
run EXPLAIN PLAN, store the results in a database, and then use a smart
comparison tool to do reporting. It works very well.

When this question was asked earlier, one suggestion was to capture =3D
samples
of the SQL in v$sql, then run it through EXPLAIN PLAN to find SQL =3D
statements
that are using indexes in this tablespace. I don't recall the success =
=3D
or
failure of this method being posted.

If it really is a problem (somebody complaining, devices being=3D20
overloaded, whatever), then you would need to track which =
user(s)/apps=3D20
issued the LIO calls to the datablock adresses of this tablespace.
Tracking of individual LIO calls including the file number, block =3D
number=3D20
and number of blocks is externalized in v$session_wait and in 10046=3D20
trace files (excluding exotic direct memory access methods and probably =
=3D
some decent 3rd party tools).
So putting on 10046 level 8 trace on your whole instance will show =
it,=3D20
but will require at least 42 GB of storage for the trace files and =
42=3D20
days to interpret the results afterwards :).
