Ron,

The 8.1.6 base release is not very stable. We found several problems with this release like pga memory leaks.

Try to load patch 8.1.6.1x patches and then patch to 8.1.6.3 We use 8.1.6.3.4 patch for Windows NT 4. Pretty stable.

Do not just load 8.1.6.3.x on top of 8.1.6.0, cause there are some patches (8.1.6.1.x) which are not included in 8.1.6.3.x.

You can get the latest patches on Metalink

We are having trouble with response time and server crashes on a new Oracle 8.1.6 NT database. Seems like I heard that this release is not very stable. Has anyone had any experience with this release? I have not applied any of the patchsets to 8.1.6. Should I? If so, can anyone point me to where there are on Metalink?
