SERIAL_REUSE (Oracle8 Only)
Values:DISABLE, SELECT, DML, PLSQL, ALL, or NULL
Default:NULL
Specifies which types of SQL cursors will make use of the serial-reusable memory feature, which moves well-structured private cursor memory into the SGA (shared pool) so that it can be reused by sessions executing the same cursor. Setting the parameter to the default NULL value is equivalent to setting it to DISABLE. The allowable values are listed in Table 12.6.
