Barb, What you're really after is called "forward attribution" in the book. You need to see the dbcall that immediately follows each "WAIT nam='SQL*Net message from client'" event in the trace file. This will tell you what database call's execution it was that ended the read().

It looks to me (with just this snippet of trace) that the cursor #3 did some communication and then waited for 10 seconds for a response. Without seeing the raw trace file and sequence of events, this is my best guess.
