Dennis ... your max_dump_file_size parameter is set that's why you see max 4M. I had some 8G trace files ...

Subject: RE: RE: what causes a memory dump?
Ryan - The largest I've seen is 4-meg., so this is unusual. My suggestion
would be to change your USER_DUMP_DEST to a drive with more free space,
because the DBA's rule of life is that if an error is encountered once, it
will probably be encountered again. Also check your alert log, because the
error that caused the dump will be mentioned there. Try to diagnose the
problem before it whacks you again. Good luck.
