Correction:
"continuous" should read "contiguous"
"cause lot of little available memory areas" should read "cause a large number of small non-contiguous memory areas"

This is a new feature of 10g R2. I have seen the same warning in 10.2.0.2 Standard Edition. There is a way to disable the warning, but I can't recall the method right now (might be _kgl_large_heap_warning_threshold).
