Explanation

CURSOR_SPACE_FOR_TIME parameter set to TRUE tells Oracle to keep cursors in memory even when not in use, trading memory for performance. Before enabling this, you must confirm that RELOADS in V$LIBRARYCACHE is consistently zero - meaning SQL statements aren't being reloaded, indicating sufficient shared pool memory.
