High Log Switch and Clear Wait findings

Description
What to do next
Perform one of the following options:
n   Examine the Oracle events that are grouped into the Wait for Log Switch and Clear. Determine the dominant Oracle event and follow the tuning scenario set by this event in the Statistics workspace.
n   Examine the statements with the highest values for this wait and determine which applications are creating this wait in the Activity workspace.
Advice
If the related Oracle events show too many log switches, try and reduce them by one of the following options:
n   Increase the Redo log size (when the Log File Switch (checkpoint incomplete) and/or Log File Switch Completion event is dominant).
n   Change the application flow or logging policy (by changing the commit frequency or using No Logging on specific objects).
There can be other reasons for a high Log Switch and Clear wait, such as an LGWR delay where the files cannot be switched until ARCH archiving is completed. This is usually caused by the Log File Switch (archiving needed) event.
