When we were experencing rowcache waits and extreme slowness OWS suggested
that we increase the PAT from 100000000 to 1000000000 along with increasing
the size of the shared_pool, etc. It worked and we have left it this way
since then. It helped with the rowcache problem. I can look up the info
from the TAR when I return on Tuesday if you send me an email offlist.

Has anyone used this parameter in 9i (9.2.0.4)?
I have a vended application with multiply nested unions and select distincts. The vendor has cleaned up some of the worst queries but it is still very sloppy and ineffcient.
The server is dedicated to this application's database. It has lots of RAM (12G) and CPUs (4). It hammers the CPUs pretty hard, as much as 100% utilization during prime user time. With everything taken into account, it barely uses 2G of memory. The best conclusion I can draw from mulitple analysis of statspack output is tune the application which is not possible.
Any thoughts or experience with this parameter?
