Thanks David. You are right, I did not notice that the private figure
actually included the SGA size as well.

pmap seems to include portions of the SGA in the Private and Resident
columns, not the Shared one.  On solaris, this shows up as a line with
(shmid=0x...) in the Mapped File column.  To get a more sensible memory
usage, I suppose that you would have to subtract these from total (the size
is different for background and user processes ) and then add the size of
the SGA once.

Good day,

I am looking at how Oracle and other applications running on a Solaris 2.6
server are using memory. The server has 512 MB of RAM. I issued the
"/usr/proc/bin/pmap $pid" command to display memory usage info and used the
figure from the "total KB" line of the output (the last line of the output).
When I add up the figures for all Oracle processes the sum of the Private
areas for all Oracle processes on teh system is 1.5 GB. I do not understand
this. How can this be greater than the physical RAM amount (which is 512
MB)? As I understand the Private amount is the Resident amount less the
Shared amount, so the Private amount for a process would be the physical
memory amount used exclusive by the process and not shared with other
processes.

If you could help me to understand more about this stuff, very much
appreciate.

I am trying to see if we need to up the RAM on the system.

Thanks
Long
