Yes - very annoying to say the least. As Arnd had stated the issue is with Oracle and the views that are used for the data dictionary. They are really bad. We ended up creating our own views with the same name to speed things up because we could not get anything done. I will need to validate what views we did this to but I do know we couldn't do all of them for some reason.
I had posted something when we first upgraded and was hoping there was an ini setting that would stop PB from querying those tables but heard nothing. If anyone has a secret for this we need it because as more of our customers convert to Oracle 12 they are seeing the same problem in InfoMaker. We have a lot of users with InfoMaker and I do not want to keep taking those calls.
