ORACLE 9.2.0.6 on redh hat system

hi,

during pics of activity on a production database all my application freeze.
Statspack reports show me latch free problems and particuliary library cache.

library cache            kglpndl: child: before pro       0      2,646    3,298
library cache            kglpndl: child: after proc       0      2,053       42
library cache            kglhdgn: child:                  0      1,473    2,568
library cache            kglpnp: child                    0      1,231    2,094 


I think I haven't bind problem.

I don't know if it's an application probleme or a bad parametrage.

I traced a specific application to understand what happen on the session level.

I dind't understand why the call of the package take so long time.
Of course, the code is not responsible, he just take the effect of the big wait.

Any idea?

Hello.

Difficult to say using this information only, what does load.set_prix_produit do exactly? Is it performing the INSERT seen also?

The things that stand out (certainly to me) are :
INSERT INTO PRIX_PRODUIT (PRODUIT, DATE, PRIX, NOMBRE)
VALUES
 (:B6 , :B5 , :B4 , :B3 , :B2 , :B1 )


call     count       cpu    elapsed       disk      query    current        rows
------- ------  -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------  ----------
Parse        0      0.00       0.00          0          0          0           0
Execute  48372     15.47     245.57        875       3383     750261       48372

For a start, that's incorrect syntax on the INSERT (is this really how it was?), but secondly, this INSERT is being executed
48372 times, which is identical to the calls to the package. Does this imply that the client is executing the INSERT one at a time?
Or, is the insert called as a consequence of the package call (or vice versa)? If so, there may be mileage in "bulk"-ing up this statement, also, the "current" (i.e. db block gets) count is quite high, which is a little surprising if this is a table, are there indexes / triggers on this table?
