  1. How low is too low? Basically, different applications will tend to have
different BHR values (Buffer Hit Ratio).
  2. BHR varies over time, and will depend a lot on the lengths of time you
sample it, and what type of processing was running.
  3. A low BHR can lead you to a problem. Other indicators like waits can
also lead you to the same problems. But the point is that you need to
investigate what the problem actually is, rather than just increase the
buffer cache size.
  4. Changing the db_block_buffer size may increase the BHR. Sometimes it
doesn't affect the BHR at all.
  5. Get a copy of the book Oracle Performance Tuning 101 and you will learn
more about Oracle tuning and why you don't just want to focus on the BHR and
increasing the buffer cache size.

However, it is not at all difficult to get a high BHR with Connor's script
(...if one *must* see those 'five 9s'...) at 
http://www.oracledba.co.uk/. Click on Tuning and the on 'Custom Hit Ratio'.
While there, browse the site for some really useful things than fixing the
BHR.
