Oracle9i High-Performance Tuning with Statspack (Oracle press book - Don Burleson)recommends the following settings for an OLTP database:-
SGA RAM 65%
PGA RAM 15%
UNIX RAM 20% (although I am running Windows 2000 OS)
We are running an OLTP based system 9.2.0.4 on Windows 2000 (SP4) with 2G ram and 2G processor, therefore, based on the above recommendations I should set the SGA
and PGA as follows:-
SGA RAM - 1394Meg
PGA RAM -  314Meg
Windows - Remainder
Does this sound correct?

Hi,

That should do for the initial setup. Nevertheless, remember to use the memory advisors to tune the various memory areas to perfection:

  • v$db_cache_advice
  • v$shared_pool_advice
  • v$pga_target_advice
  • v$java_pool_advice (Oracle 10g)
  • v$px_buffer_advice (Oracle 10g)


Also monitor memory usage via operating system utilities to ensure the system is not paging or swapping excessively.

Best regards.

Frank
