try ALTER TABLE xxx STORAGE(BUFFER_POOL KEEP);
when the table blocks are first accessed they should go to the KEEP buffer
and if it is big enough they should never be flushed out (take a look at
the BUFFER_POOL_KEEP init.ora parameter).
several people mentioned ALTER TABLE xxx CACHE; but this is different from
"pinning" because it will just instruct the server to place the table blocks
on the "most recently used" end of the buffer pool (instead on the "least
recently used" one) if full table scan is performed and sooner or later
they would probably be flushed out.
