I've got an 8.1.7.4.0 instance running under Solaris 2.8.

I've never worked with MTS before, but got a call from a user telling me that there were about 700 rows in v$session but they only had about 130 sessions open. The user believes that when the session is ended, v$session doesn't (or doesn't always) get cleaned up. Does anyone have any insight into this? Thanks.

I checked v$process and had about 89 rows, which matched exactly to the 89 unix processes that I had on the box.

I looked at paddr in v$session and saw that there were just over 100 rows pointing to each of the 6 dispatchers. The other rows each had their own dedicated process.

I checked v$dispatcher and saw the 100+ values in the OWNED column, but also saw values between 300 - 450 in the CREATED column.

I really don't know whether the application ends it's connections gracefully or nongracefully.
