The data dictionary cache holds cached blocks from the data dictionary. Data blocks from tables in the data dictionary are used continually to assist in processing user queries and other DML commands. If the data dictionary cache is too small, requests for information from the data dictionary will cause extra I O to occur these I O bound data dictionary requests are called recursive calls and should be avoided by sizing the data dictionary cache correctly.
