we're using it, on 8.1.6 No problems so far, and it relieved the problem of not being able to get a chunk of memory for the shared pool and having to flush. My programmers wrote their code using constants... on insert statements in a registration system. So my sqlarea was getting filled with identical statements, except for the value of the constant.

Rather than make them recode (trust me, I would have had to get the rack and thumbscrews out to make that happen), I turned on cursor_sharing=force and it's worked like a dream.
