Hi All,
My company, we r using oracle 8.1.7.0 and in this version one bug called memory leak problem. so I have set parameter _db_handles_cached = 0 in the init.ora file.
So can anybody give me a hidden implication of this parameter
Thanks

always set the hiddent parameters with the advise of OSS.
specifically _db_handles_cached is known for peformance bugs.
To my known knowledge _db_handles_cached = 0 set to avoid an ora-04031( which is a generic bug). And this is only a workaround solution.
the right solution would be to apply a higher patchset of atleast 8.1.7.4.
If remember correctly, the bug is fixed in 8.1.7.2 itself.
