Re: init.ora processes ??

2002-08-18 Thread Yechiel Adar

Another thing to consider is this:

From OraPerf:
The LGWR needs to scan all processes to find each process that is
waiting for the commit to be written.

So when you have an excess of process LGWR works harder.

init.ora processes ??

2002-08-16 Thread Bob Robert

All,

What is the impact of processes init.ora parameter
other than restricting number of user sessions ? I
know it needs more memory (like stack size + sort area
size + etc. ) whenever it gets new connection.

My question is:
Is there any additional resource (does it take more
memory? ) usage if I start database with 100 processes
versus 200 processes as init.ora parameter (assuming
that I have same number of sessions in both cases). 

Thanks for your help.

Bob

RE: init.ora processes ??

2002-08-16 Thread Fink, Dan

For each process 'reserved' by oracle, there is a small amount of space
allocated in the SGA and a semaphore is reserved at the O/S level (assuming
UNIX). A lesser number of processes will allocate a slightly smaller amount
of SGA and fewer semaphores. Until a session is started, no other memory is
allocated.

Re: init.ora processes ??

2002-08-16 Thread Rachel Carmichael

the larger the number of processes in the init.ora, the larger the
number of semaphores you need on most Unix systems. Not all, I *think*
from reading the list that AIX doesn't use semaphores (I've only worked
on HP-UX and SUN, both of which use semaphores)

If the processes parameter is set so high that there are no more
semaphores available, your database won't open
