Dear DBA Gurus,

OS: Solaris 8 (SUN OS 5.8)

Oracle Ver: 8.1.5 and 8.1.6

Nature of problem: There is a problem reported from our application that there is a memory leak problem in OCI related queries. I posted the problem in OTN and got the response that, these versions require patches. But exact patch details are not available. Memory is not getting released even after completion of the query. Once the available memory gets used, we need to restart the system to get the free memory. This is happening in Oracle 8.0.5 and Oracle 8.1.5 on Red Hat Linux 6.2 too.

Initially we have suspected the problem in our application and the same was debugged and
closing the handle after completion of the query has been taken care. Now it is very clear that the oracle setting may be causing the problem.

This is very urgent and please get back to me with accurate solution as early as possible.

TIA and Regards

Ranganath
