Bruce, Only use estore if you are IO bound. If you are CPU bound the attach/detach of 
memory will increase CPU utilization. Other than that you should be ok. Phil


> Hi All,
We have an old platform running DB2 V6 and Windows NT Server. It has 4GB of memory 
which we want to exploit. We are currently using less than 2 GB for DB2, and the 
machine is mainly a database server. My understanding is that a single program is 
limited to 2GB of memory under NT and to 3GB if using the Advanced Server option.

We are planning to use DB2 extended memory (Database configuration parameter 
NUM_ESTORE_SEGS) to get around the 2 (or maybe 3) GB limit on memory usage for NT 
tasks. Has anybody used extended memory on NT and is there anything we should watch 
out for?

Thanks,
Bruce
