Oracle eats up memory

My Oracle 8.1.5 running on Windows NT 4.0 is consuming a lot of memory and does not release the memory untill the client that is accessing the database is terminated. My client is also running on Windows NT4.0. My client is accessing the database using ADO. On startup, the client opens multiple connections to the database. The database is searched and updated by the client through stored procedure on the Oracle. The client closes the connections before terminating.

I checked the task manager. It shows Oracle uses 245MB of memory and 570MB of virtual memory.
Why Oracle continues to consume memory and does not release the memory until the client is terminated. Received on Wed Nov 05 2003 - 09:26:48 CST
