I cannot say much for Windows, but 9.2.0.5 is very stable on both Linux and 
Solaris.
Please note that I said "very stable", not just "stable". As a matter of fact, 
some problems with OCI were resolved by the 9.2.0.5 and it didn't make any 
trouble
since then. It's the most boring release so far, it hasn't caused any 
excitement, it
obediently does what the proverbial manual says it should, nothing more, 
nothing less.
With 9.2.0.4 I've hat problems with LOB's. Here is an excerpt from my last 
communication
with Oracle Support:

"Hi Mladen,

This looks like Bug:3110501 OERI:[kdlfkd-7] possible on stream write to a LOB 
segment
Stream write to a LOB segment (including temporary lobs) can fail with 
ORA-600[kdlfkd-7].

Fixed-Releases: 9205 10g"

I installed 9.2.0.5 and I haven't had any reasons for contacting the nice 
people from Oracle Support
since then. My LOB's are performing as they should.


Thanks, Rodica
