They write all to the same trace file. So there should be different
sid.serial# combinations.

Right, but the new session (that inherits the sql
trace attribute) - wouldn't it produce a **separate**
trace file? In my case there's only one trace file
with sid.serial# clearly stated at the begining of the
trace file and WAIT #0 scattered all over the trace. 
..Or am I missing something?
