Chuan - The Sqlarea should contain All the statements (generalized as objects here as it is true for sql stmts, cursors, procedures, sequences etc.) since the database startup WHICH are not yet flushed out of the LRU list UNLESS explicitly flushed through "..Flush shared_pool" command you mentioned. Also...
- Currently "pinned" ( accessed )objects will NOT be flushed (even with flush command) - Objects "KEPT" using DBMS_SHARED_POOL.KEEP procedure to pin the objects to the Shared Pool for the life of the instance will NOT be flushed out of the Sqlarea, and hence cannot be seen thru the v$sqlarea. Regards, Ravi Kulkarni. -----Original Message----- To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Sent: 10/25/02 1:13 AM Dear All, I wonder how long the life time of data in v$sqlarea. Is it a cumulative data collecting in v$sqlarea since last database startup?or do the data in v$sqlarea only reflect some recently data in Least Recetly List? Why do I ask this is after I used "alter system flush shared_pool", I could not see some SQL statements in v$sqlarea where they were there before.
