Could maybe be a by product of when transactions completed.
Remember that the recording is made when the transaction completes...so timing
wise a long running transaction could have just completed when you began the
snap?
Hi
I have a HP-UX Server running Oracle
8.1.7.4, there are 6 CPUs.
I have a statspack
report which shows this (2 hours interval)

was wondering how can we get over 69000 seconds waits in 2 hours with 6 CPUs?
That is much larger than
3600seconds * 6CPUs * 2hours
TIA
