Are there any known issues of EF usage with Oracle database? Are there any key points I should specially pay attention? Share your toughts and experience please?

A: 

You will need to use a 3rd party EF provider to talk to Oracle, this may cost money.

All of the EF examples asume you are using Sql Server

A: 

Most EF implementations for Oracle require the deployment of the Oracle client in order to use some or all of the available features. Look for an implementation that is 100% managed for support of all features in order to avoid the performance bottlenecks, memory leaks, and deployment headaches this type of implementation can cause.
