RE: PL SQL Procedure in Package
All the database objects defined inside a package gets loaded in memory for first and only call to database from application, thus executing procedures in packages requires less communication time from database thus faster. The procedures inside a package using other private procedures does not require to communicate from database again, it is already in the memory.....thus executing procedures from packages is faster.

In case of stand alone procedures, each procedures or d/b objects requires one call to database to be loaded in memory and then executed from application, the number of calls to database makes the execution slower.
