Not that I can think of...  Of course, since 1.10.3 is not threaded you
should take care not to do any really expensive queries.

No -- if you asked the database who was logged in (ala sp_who on sybase)
you'd see two logins.

Can't think of any.

P.S. - How goes Oracle on Linux?  Stable, reliable, etc, "easy" to
setup?
