Hi,
 Sorry I did not catch all the messages in this thread...

 So, is this temporary tablespace the default at database level?  

 Look in DATABASE_PROPERTIES to check which tablespace is the default temporary tablespace.   

  select *
  from database_properties
  where property_name = 'DEFAULT_TEMP_TABLESPACE';

 If the default temp tablespace is the same that does not have any tempfiles associated with it, then your sorting, so far, did not need to write to sort segments and was completing in memory (same for the hash joins). If those segments needed to be written to temp tablepace without tempfiles you would have seen following error:

  ORA-25153: Temporary Tablespace is Empty

HTH, Cheers!
