It seems that Oracle adjusts the value of shared pool size set by the user using some unknown criteria.
I have:
db block buffers(12800)*db block size(2048)+log buffer(163840)+shared poo l size(36000000)
and my SGA is:

Total System Global Area      66090460 bytes
Fixed Size                       41880 bytes
Variable Size                 39670340 bytes (adjusted)
Database Buffers              26214400 bytes (OK)
Redo Buffers                    163840 bytes (OK)

Best regards, Cristian
