oracle optimizer_features_enable,optimizer_features_enable

if you upgrade your database from release 10.1 to release 11.1, but you want to keep the release 10.2.0.4 optimizer behavior, you can do so by setting this parameter to 10.2.0.4. At a later time, you can try the enhancements introduced in releases up to and including release 11.1 by setting the parameter to 11.1.0.6.
