As everybody said log_buffer 200M is to big and useless. But shared pool size of 100M is only for small database having low workload. For busy OLTP that's not unusual to have shared pool 1G and more.
Ramon,
What is the problem? You didn't mention the symthoms.
"free buffer requested" and "enqueue requests" have nothing to do with redo
logs at all.
"free buffer requested" - about data block buffers
"enqueue requests" - about rows and tables locking (should be slightly lower
then " enqueue releases" ;)
If you just want to be "proactive", take a look at "redo log space wait" and "redo buffer allocation retries"
