*We* don't, however :-) If you'd care to enlighten us as to the particular job 
and why [you believe that] the tempfile creation is unavoidable, we might be 
able to offer something more.

Maybe. Those would help as long as your intermediate resultset is lower than 
what you can allocate to them, but you're talking 22G in the machine and 30G of 
data. You also need to realize that those are going to be allocated 
per-connection (albeit not necessarily at full size), so that can be a 
potential disaster.
