I spent last two days working on that SQR and finally nailed it.
Developers were using DISTINCT as a rule and CBO was choosing incorrect indexes.
I had to do following to make it work ...
1. we put hints in appropriate places
2. created 3 new indexes to help the queries
3. Created 1 MV
4. Change the pl/sql code to be more efficient
5. Remove unnecessary distinct conditions.
After all this said and done, I finally have the SQR taking around 375
seconds compared to about 1500 seconds. Even if I run all 8 of them in parallel
it doesn't blow the TEMP segments.
Now comes the difficult part, to explain the development the things that
we had to do and why we had to do them.
I think I am really starting to see the power of event 10046 ... I just
wish I should learn more on event 10053 as well, but that will come too
eventually.
I am still going to track the temp segment usage though
...
Thanks everyone for all your kind suggestions, I am not done yet, there
is more work to be done.

Subject: RE: Tracking Temp Segment Usage and Event 10046I'd start looking at the execution plans first and examine if there is any Cartesian joins and the order the tables get joined.Waleed
