You've got that wrong. DB_SEQUENTIAL_WAITS are usually index lookups, NOT FTS.
FTS can generate sequential reads if you have chained rows, a lot of blocks of that table already in the buffer, or a very messed up extent strategy, else they generate scattered reads. Do you know that your slow batch jobs suffer because of FTS or do you merely assume that?
