If you do
> select count(distinct address||hash_value)
> from v$sqlarea
> /

and

> select count(distinct sql_address||sql_hash_value)
> from v$session
> /

[Quoted] you obtain VERY different results... What is all this stuff in the V$SQL<something> views ?? Is this SQL statements that are still in the buffer ?

And what does the STATUS field of V$SESSION mean ?

Thks !
