From awr report:

===================================

enq: IV - contention 52,914 1688.4 31.91 42.8 Other

---------------------------------------- Waited ---------- ------------
enq: IV - contention 6017 0.32 287.68
row cache lock 957 0.20 7.48
library cache lock 631 0.13 15.10
library cache pin 616 0.11 14.54

 

CAUSE

Cluster nodes have different CPU count resulting in different number of LMD processes, on one node it has two while on the other it has three.

The issue is due to the following bug:

BUG 21293056 - PERFORMANCE DEGRADATION OF GRANT STATEMENT AFTER 12C UPGRADE

Which is closed as duplicate of:

BUG 21395269 - ASYMMETRICAL LMDS CONFIGURATION IN A CLUSTER LEADS TO POOR MESSAGE TRANSFER

 

SOLUTION

The fix will be included in future PSU, patch exists for certain platform/version.

The workaround is to set the following parameter to the highest value in the cluster and restart:
_ges_server_processes

To find out the highest value, run the following grep on each node:
ps -ef| grep lmd
