RE: RE: buffer overflow

Forgot the smiley!

And, to make up for that, I ran a simple test and found that 'set serveroutput off' solves the problem.

My code:
BEGIN
    dbms_output.put_line('sysdate: ' || sysdate); END;
/

with serveroutput on started dumping data to the screen in about 5 seconds. With serveroutput off I had to kill the session.
