Hi,

Just recently, we have been frequently receiving errors like the following in our 
development database:

ERROR:
ORA-04031: unable to allocate 4096 bytes of shared memory ("shared pool","BEGIN
DBMS_OUTPUT.DISABLE; E...","PL/SQL MPCODE","BAMIMA: Bam Buffer")

The size of our shared pool is not too small (I think); it's larger than our test and 
maintenance databases, for example.

shared_pool_reserved_size            string  800000
shared_pool_size                     string  16000000

What could be causing this level of frequent fragmentation?  We have been developing a 
new application in the database, but this has been ongoing for some months; the errors 
appeared only in the last week or so.

What should I be looking for to solve this?

Thanx for any advice.

-arn
