This contains a number that increases every time the session completes a call to the database and there has been an intervening select from a dynamic performance table. This column can be used by performance monitors to monitor statistics in the database. Each time the performance monitor looks at the database, it only needs to look at sessions that are currently active or have a higher value in this column than the highest value that the performance monitor saw the last time. All the other sessions have been idle since the last time the performance monitor looked at the database. |

The final blocking session is the final element in the wait chain constructed by following the sessions that are blocked by one another starting with this session. In the case of a cyclical wait chain, one of the sessions in the wait chain will be chosen as the final blocker. This column provides details on whether there is a final blocking session:

If the session is currently waiting, then the number of the resource or event for which the session is waiting. If the session is not in a wait, then the number of the resource or event for which the session most recently waited. |

Wait state:
|
|
|
Amount of time waited (in microseconds). If the session is currently waiting, then the value is the time spent in the current wait. If the session is currently not in a wait, then the value is the amount of time waited in the last wait. |
|
|
Value is interpreted as follows:
|
|
|
Total time for the current wait (in microseconds) A wait includes code within its beginning and end that can encounter other waits as part of its implementation. For example, a wait might need to acquire a latch to check state to determine when the wait is satisfied, and the latch itself might enter a wait. In this case, when the latch wait ends and returns to the outer wait, the latch time is included in the value of this column, while the value of |

Heuristic wait time (in microseconds) This value is calculated by attempting to group sequential waits that appear to be the same. |
