Hmm.... read somewhere (James Morle?) that this may not apply if the (subsequent) bind variable sizes differ vastly from the initial. I would check that Jared (I know that you have JM's book and have actually read it!) I don't remember if this changes with session_cached_cursors. I ask because Apps is notorious for using bind variables that vastly differ (read: flexfields).
