I don't think that's it, I can get rid of the problem by using a plan baseline, but I really need to know the cause. Library hit is over 99%, SQL with executions >1 is 93%

If there was a ton of unshared SQL in the shared pool, Oracle had to spend a lot of time searching for a match (only to never ind one and re-parse anyway) However, I never got near 15 minutes so that is a little baffling. I am talking maybe a minute vs. sub-second (after a flush). We had two solutions on the table. One, a job that flushed the shared pool once per hour. Two, shrinking the shared pool. Our shared pool was something like 4GB. Shrinking it to 1 GB really helped. Also, we disabled ASSM so the SP would not continue to grow, stealing memory from our DB Cache due the non-shared SQL clogging it up. There was just no sense in a large shared pool when a majority of our SQL was not shared (vendor app).

The second time, it takes 15 minutes. If I flush the shared pool it again runs in .01 sec. This looks like a bug to me, but I can't find it. Anyone have any ideas on this?
