PLSQL pkg runtime Size Limitations?

[Quoted] [Quoted]    Is there a limit on the max size a PLSQL pkg can    takeup at runtime?   

   The issue in essence, is that - we have a 3000    line pkg, that works for 299,999 cases out of    300,000 cases.

   But, for that 1 case in 300,000, the    processing breaks down.

• There are no PLSQL exceptions raised.
• We get a ORA-3113 - "end of file on communication channel" error in the front end.
• Sometimes the db crashes.

   There is nothing different in terms of data    volumes or elements being processed.

   However, given the reproducibility of this error,    it lead us into thinking that there are some    implicit size restrictions on PLSQL packages.

   We have experimented on breaking the package into    smaller packages, and, per expectations - we do have    a version that works. It works SOLID.

   But, except for this one version that works,    there are 4 other versions, similarly "downsized",    that do NOT work.

   How do we get a clue into breaking this impasse?

   Any pointers/suggestions/comments are gratefully accepted, Sincerely,
