Exactly! This is the thing that ora_check_sql=>0 prevents when you use
the Perl DBI. Then there's the problem of doing the prepare() inside a
loop. The way to fix that problem is to NEVER PARSE INSIDE A LOOP.

The application that is running this, or the connection thinger (ODBC,
JDBC,
DBI) is parsing it twice. They often do a describe before a parse, which
results in two parses for every execution.

 945 * 2 = 1895

Why should a query such as this, with bind variables and no literals,
be parsed so many times?  Other queries in the trace show, for example,
2 parses and 160000 executions.  And while I'm at it, why does is the
parse count shown equal to the SUM of executes and fetches?

SELECT BENEFICIARY_FK, BENEFICIARY_PHONE_PK, PHONE_TYPE_FK,
PHONE_NUMBER 
FROM BENEFICIARY_PHONE WHERE COMPANY_FK = :V00001 
AND BENEFICIARY_FK IN ( :V00002)
  


call     count       cpu    elapsed       disk      query    current   
    
------- ------  -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------  
Parse     1890      0.21       0.17          0          0          0   
       
Execute    945      0.04       0.08          0          0          0   
       
Fetch      945     38.48      43.24          0     620428          0
