well, I suppose that there was no particular process, which consumed most of memory. Before terminating instance we found

found dead shared server 'S017', pid = (289, 182)

PMON: terminating instance due to error 4031
Instance terminated by PMON, pid = 24870

so it seems the instance was in need to get some memory in shared pool, but this memory was allocated let's say to buffer cache. Earlier we got similar errors but to user processes, so there was not much pain, and problem solved itself (probably ASMM was notified that there is lack of memory in some particular pool and "moved" it from another one). This time we had less luck.
I have been using Auto Memory Management for a while now on our DSS DBs, without much issues. Only issue I have is when people do bulk collect with wrong limit/s.
well, as I mentioned, our database is OLTP, so with more turbulent requirements for memory in different pools - that is why I suppose ASMM doesn't work well

Charles sent some tips on metalink notes on details to this issue, so I would "deep" into it.

thanks
