Usually when the response time changes based on the values, this indicates data skew. In other words, you put in "where x=10" and you get back five values, and "where x=5" gives back 3,000. Oracle assumes that data is equally distributed around indexed values. If the data is not equally distributed about an index it is skewed. In order to help the optimizer with skewed data you need to use histograms. Histograms are created using the ANALYZE command or through options in the DBMS_STATS gather procedures.
