I’ve just found out that we can specify query block for PRECOMPUTE_SUBQUERY: /*+ precompute_subquery(@sel$2) */
So we can use it now with SQL profiles, SPM baselines and patches.
SQL> select/*+ precompute_subquery(@sel$2) */ * from dual where dummy in (select chr(level) from dual connect by level<=100);

PS. I’m not sure, but as far as i remember, when I tested it on 10.2, it didn’t work with specifying a query block.
And I have never seen such usage.
