I must be doing something wrong here.
I have a modper/DBI/Oracle8i/solaris2.7 site. When I just have 6 users login
to the site I end up with about 8 Oracle processes at about 200MB each
(viewed using top).
I'm issuing some very basic SQL with prepared statements. The server has 2GB
or RAM and it almost immediately starts swapping.
How do I control the number of Oracle server processes that get started?
Have I set up Oracle or Solaris incorrectly?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Here's my configuration
Embedded Perl version 5.00503 for Stronghold/2.4.2 Apache/1.3.6 C2NetEU/2412
(Unix) mod_perl/1.21
Apache::DBI 0.87
