Hello Every One. thanks for your concert, but I gave up I used the parameter CURSOR_SHARING=SIMILAR. and the comsumption of shared pool went down to less than 1Gb and don't raise over that limit. I know if the implication on the execution plan and the issue would reapears if the shared pool goes up again. But the problem was very serious, the system hanging every 3-4 hours is not a nice enviroment.

Again thanks for your help.
