Brain was clearly not engaged when I wrote the
last answer - I have a set of results I produced 
some time back when calibrating init.ora parameters
with memory usage.  (Out of date by now since it
was 8.0).

Simple test:
    Double the size of sessions in the init.ora,
    various entries in v$sgastat will increase in
    size, even though you haven't changed
    shared_pool_size.  The shared_pool_size
    is just one component of the "shared pool".
