I also explained how the _small_table_thresholdparameter and theX$KCBOQH.NUM_BUF(which keeps track of how many buffers of any segment are currently cached) are used for determining whether to scan using direct path reads or not. - Linux, Oracle, SQL performance tuning and troubleshooting training & writing.
