Mike, I do not know if this is related to your problem but when we went from Oracle 8.0 to 8.1 we had to add memory to the shared pool in order to be able to run the same applications successfully. When we upgraded from 32 to 64 bit 8.1.7 we again had to add memory to the shared pool. You might want to look at your pool statistics. Oracle could be working harder to handle pool resources.

But I would expect that the slow client login process might be related to the version of the client in use. What verion of the Oracle client are your running? Did you also upgrade it?
