Steve Adam's site says "In a well managed shared pool, flushing should not be needed." So is your shared pool too big or are people not using bind variables? So all your users take a hit in the morning as they hard parse all the new sql statements. But maybe you pin everything. I agree flushing the shared pool is a very poor bandade for shared pool problems.
