To keep the rollback segments in buffer, so that rolling around the rollback
segments happens before blocks are written to disk.  Which will increase
snapshot to old, but increase performance.

I am curious.
What are you trying to accomplish by 
decreasing rollback segment size??

Looking at your trace file, most of your lost time appears
to be in an update of F4211.

  UPDATE CRPDTA.F4211
    SET SDRSDJ=:BND1,SDPPDJ=:BND2,
        SDCARS=:BND3,SDMOT=:BND4,
        SDFRTH=:BND5,SDUSER=:BND6,SDPID=:BND7,
        SDJOBN=:BND8,SDUPMJ=:BND9,SDTDAY=  :BND10
    WHERE  ( SDCDCD = :KEY1 )

9 seconds CPU, 283 seconds elapsed.

I doubt if freelists are your problem, but possibly the
lost time is initrans.  NB from 8.1.6 you can change
initrans  without rebuilding the table - which is good
if you don't have to go back to the old data and keep
doing the same concurrent updates.

There is no point in going above initrans = 20, but
you might push it up to 10. This may improve the
enqueue (TX mode 4?) problem, but if it does it
will probably make the log sync problem worse.

Try and swing more resources into DBWn -
increase LRU latches to start with, and
check whether async I/O, I/O slaves, or
multiple db_writers works best for you.

You may also want to review the size of
your log files (upwards), and your rollback
segments (downwards).
