Andrey,
 I am not into cache hit ratios, but got curious about your negative value. 

 So I casually searched Metalink for 'negative value for hit ratio'. And got
a hit on 'MROC: I am receiving a negative Buffer Cache hit ratio' thread.
You may want to check it out, there seems to be a new formula for hit ratio
computation in 8i/9i. 

HTH,

Regards,
