I am at 9204 and I was experiencing ora-4031. That's why I started watching
the free memory.

thank you

This is normal behavior as chunks are flushed from and added to the
shared pool, the memory fluctuates. As long as you are not seeing
ORA-04031 error or contention on the shared pool latch is not too high,
you are fine. What RDBMS version are you on?

Subject: Re: SGA Free memory

Hi all:

I am watching the usage of the SGA on my database via the following
command:

select to_char(sysdate,'mm-dd-yyyy hh24:mi:ss'), name, bytes/(1024*1024)
from v$sgastat, dual
where pool like '%shared%' and name  = 'free memory' order by bytes asc
;

I am running it every 10 seconds. Recently I saw the free memory going
from
25M to 145M over the course
of 10 sec. I'm wondering what could have caused it. Would appreciate any
suggestions


thank you
