Looks like your itrprof id doing the same thing as Millsap's www.hotsos.com
(available already or soon)for which they are going to charge $50-100 per
upload.

Mogens,

You are right.

nothing is a performance problem unless there is a time contention.

In general, it's very hard to see time spent in each latch. itrprof SQL
Analyzer
with waitgroup=(name,P1,P2) can report time spent in each latch. So, you can
see
time spent in A latch, time spent in B latch, etc. I'm not a very old dba,
but I
don't think many latches can be tuned by init.ora parameters.

with waitgroup=(name,P1), you can see time spent in each enqueue such as 5
sec
in (TX), 3 sec in (TM) etc.

'latch free' and 'enqueue' waits do not make sense themselves. You can
drill-down these each waits by itrprof.

a little marketing...
