Goal
Query performs badly because of Sort-Merge Join.
When the pga_aggregate_target is increased, then the optimizer would favour for SM join which could be time consuming. So it is better to disable the SM join so that the optimizer would not favour SM joins in any circumstances.
SM Join can be disabled using the following parameter:
"_optimizer_sortmerge_join_enabled"
