I have seen this when storage indexes on Exadata became unusable. The plan would be the same but the storage index pruning would not be executed.  

I have seen this when a the needed blocks of a file remained unchanged and had been cached for a long time and then there was an instance restart or in the case of RAC the query was executed on a different node.  

I have seen this when parallel query was used and the required number of “servers” were not available and the query waited to actually execute until enough servers were available.  

I *think* that is all if this: “No indexes were touched, the table was not purged or anything” is true.  

(This presumes a read only query.)  

I have also seen a range of releases and patches for 12.x on Exadata where inserting into a unique index locked the entire index until the transaction was complete, so that if many were fired off concurrently they serialized to run one at a time as each previous one was complete.  

There might be more, but that’s all I recall seeing.  

Good luck,

I can't recall a time when I have ever seen query performance change and it only be CPU time when the query and the plan have not changed. I have a lot of history and it is running with the same plan as it always has. No indexes were touched, the table was not purged or anything. It is a large 100+ GB table. Anyone seen this type of thing and have any ideas as to what might cause this? OCI cloud and only this query so not a CPU changed behind the scenes - in the cloud thing.
