Yes, it definately appears to be persisting across individual
statements. Unfortunately this database has no global temporary
tables (aside from SYS.ATEMPTAB$, of course), so that isn't it. :-(

Thanx, this was a great suggestion. It seems that all of the
problematic sessions are split between LOB_DATA and LOB_INDEX, with
the former taking the majority of the space. I'm guessing this means
that the application is using temporary LOBS, and not releasing them
once they're no longer needed... I'll check with the developers.
Thanx!
