I used from 9i release 1, it works fine, you can tune it using 
PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET must be set
And STATISTICS_LEVEL can be in TYPICAL or ALL, not BASIC.
SELECT 'PGA SIZE '||(PGA_TARGET_FOR_ESTIMATE/1024/1024)||' MB CAUSES A CACHE
HIT '
|ESTD_PGA_CACHE_HIT_PERCENTAGE 
FROM V$PGA_TARGET_ADVICE;
 
PGA size 12,5 MB causes a cache hit 92 
PGA size 25 MB causes a cache hit 99 
PGA size 50 MB causes a cache hit 99 
PGA size 75 MB causes a cache hit 100 
PGA size 100 MB causes a cache hit 100 
PGA size 120 MB causes a cache hit 100 
PGA size 140 MB causes a cache hit 100 
PGA size 160 MB causes a cache hit 100 
PGA size 180 MB causes a cache hit 100 
PGA size 200 MB causes a cache hit 100 
PGA size 300 MB causes a cache hit 100 
PGA size 400 MB causes a cache hit 100 
PGA size 600 MB causes a cache hit 100 
PGA size 800 MB causes a cache hit 100 
The current size (50M) seems to be OK.

Has anyone used this parameter in 9i (9.2.0.4)?
 
I have a vended application with multiply nested
unions and select distincts. The vendor has cleaned
up some of the worst queries but it is still very
sloppy and ineffcient.
 
The server is dedicated to this application's
database. It has lots of RAM (12G) and CPUs (4). It
hammers the CPUs pretty hard, as much as 100%
utilization during prime user time. With everything
taken into account, it barely uses 2G of memory. The
best conclusion I can draw from mulitple analysis of
statspack output is tune the application which is not
possible.
 
Any thoughts or experience with this parameter?
