  1. Accessing V$RMAN_BACKUP_JOB_DETAILS will cause a performance issue in Oracle 10.2.0.2 – 10.2.0.4. There are several notes related the view in Metalink.
The workaround is:
SQL> Connect / as sysdba
exec dbms_stats.DELETE_TABLE_STATS('SYS','X$KCCRSR');
exec dbms_stats.LOCK_TABLE_STATS('SYS','X$KCCRSR');
