ITM SQL Agent should optimize the SQL Server plan cache usage.

Problem is that currently plans are created for every query ( samples in attached document ) that means overhead in creating a lot of plans only used once and a waste of plan cache memory.That could be optimized to reduce the plan cache memory.
