DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A50 - DB2

If DB2 failed to compile a dynamic SQL statement, it'd drop the 
statement to free the space in package cache. However DB2 would 
fail to drop the statement if there's latch contention. 
As a result, the statement is left in package cache and the 
space will never be freed or reused, even if the "flush package 
cache dynamic" statement is performed. 
 
A typical compilation error is SQL1415N which simply means the 
SQL statement is to trigger some internal setting, but not to be 
executed. For example, when the "db2Import()" API is called it 
internally issues a "SET QUERY PATROLLER BYPASS" statement which 
leads to SQL1415N during compilation. 
 
To identify the problem, it'd be good if DB2 trace (db2trc) data 
can be gathered to confirm all details. 
If DB2 trace data can not be gathered, please check the "Dynamic 
SQL Variations" data in package cache by following steps: 
1) Issue "flush package cache dynamic" statement. 
2) Issue "db2pd -dynamic -db <dbname>" command then check data 
in the "Dynamic SQL Variations" section. 
For a "leaked" variation, the "Val Insert Time" is an old time 
and the "NumRef" is 0. Here is an example of 'db2pd' output:
