You don't necessarily need to reduce the parse count
unless you definitely have latch contention on the library
cache latches, and other parse-related latches.

If you are using successfully using session_cached_cursors,
then you will still see parse calls being counted, even though
the parse calls are to pinned cursors and therefore very cheap.

There seem to be at least 3 variants of 'soft' parses:

    The second parse call against a statement    much cheaper than the hard
parse
    The third parse call against a statement - slightly cheaper than the
second
        See James Morle's book for the differences between 2nd and 3rd
        This is when a cursor reference goes into the session cache
    Parse calls against a session cached statement
        Seems to be very close to the cost of a 'parse once' call.

Some latching results from a very simple-minded test,
which needs further refinement, but is indicative of the
relative costs.  (v10.1)

Parse once, execute 1,000:
---------------------------
shared pool                       1,052
library cache                     2,078
library cache lock                   28
library cache pin                 2,044

Parse once per execute 1,000 (no session cache)
so one hard, one (2nd parse) 998 (3rd parse).
--------------------------------------------------
shared pool                       3,133
library cache                     7,095
library cache lock                4,028
library cache pin                 4,048

Parse once per execute 1,000 (with session cache)
so one hard, one (2nd parse) 1 (3rd parse), 997 cached
---------------------------------------------------------
shared pool                       1,150
library cache                     2,122
library cache lock                   36
library cache pin                 2,068
