As long as you are committing transactions, you shouldn't worry. Beware of leaking Oracle processes though ... they might harm you.
On 9012 we have two packages that run ALL the time basically they de-queue from a multiple of AQs and perform post-processing on them. We bounce these processes once in about 3 weeks (stop, wait 1 second, restart) or when PGA crosses 126M. We have seen them causing havoc when PGA exceeds 128M, due to leaking smon on (oracle and os) version combination.
