Man, if anyone goes to 8.1.7.1 make sure you get the bug fix on that version
as well or you really are going to get SGA issues. They have a memory leak
(both 32-bit and 64-bit). I forget the bug number buts its right there with
the patch on the ftp site.

We use it here as well on 8.1.6/8.1.7 on NT, however we do encounter a bug.
It happens when you type in a simple query and try to insert an alias for
one of the variables. We get an ora 600 on that bad boy, seems to be a
known bug and wasn't going to be fixed until 8.1.7.1 I believe.

Ditto here.
It solves the re-coding-using-vars problem. The java programmers are such
whiners (I hope none of them read this list!).

we're using it, on 8.1.6 No problems so far, and it relieved the problem of
not being able to get a chunk of memory for the shared pool and having to
flush. My programmers wrote their code using constants... on insert
statements in a registration system. So my sqlarea was getting filled with
identical statements, except for the value of the constant.
Rather than make them recode (trust me, I would have had to get the rack and
thumbscrews out to make that happen), I turned on cursor_sharing=force and
it's worked like a dream.
