Flavio, I agree with what Dennis said about the limiting of ram usage by Oracle but, The init.ora setting will establish what you would like to use for the oracle settings and it is best if it is contigious memory also. On the OS OpenVMS there is a OS setting that will reserve memory in a contigious area for the Oracle ram needs. This setting can be larger that the actual needs and cause ram to be wasted because it is reserved for oracle. Check with your sys admin to see if there are any limiting settings for the oracle instance and adjust accordingly. Ron
>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 01/15/03 03:14PM >>> Flavio - You control the amount of RAM by your init.ora settings. Limiting processor usage is probably up to your O.S., and you didn't mention which O.S. you are on. This is probably not a good idea. Modern operating systems do a pretty good job of prioritizing the work, and limiting by CPU is a rather crude method. Dennis Williams DBA, 40%OCP Lifetouch, Inc.

I need to know if is possible to limit Oracle to use only one processor, in a machine that has 2 processors?! And if is possible to limit RAM too? Can I limit Oracle usage of RAM memory?
