I am starting to think that it is a memory leak, it's just to huge to be anything else. I will calculate the size of the tables, that will be the best sign of whats happening. Interesting point, which I am sure everyone knows already, is that Oracle does not let NT manage VM, it takes

I do not feel the statement: Oracle does not let NT manage VM is not a correct statement. I'm not an NT expert but I believe that Oracle on NT is like any WINDOWS 32 application that allocates memory through OS which is NT. If you have anything that proves otherwise please let's know.

The amount of memory (Virtual) that is used is proportional to the size of PL/SQL table. There is no solution for this b/c it's perfectly normal except that the amount of used memory is huge in comparison to the maximum amount of data in the table which could be a memory leak. You could estimate
