well, the database is the only thing running on the box, so there are no
others to estimate. With regards to the PGA and SGA, I've got my PGA on
automatic and it runs at about 500 megs, with the SGA pushin about
another 800megs.
So, I'm contemplating about 1 gig for PGA and about 3 gig for SGA. The,
do a lot of AWR work and such to see how it is doing stats wise, and
watch the users feedback.

Robert,
can you try to estimate how much memory you can utilise for other
things?
I'd try to provide as much PGA for all your processes to avoid any temp
segments. (this is not that easy as it sounds right now)
Maybe this limits the max possible SGA for you.
best regards,
Martin

So, I'm moving my 9i 32 bit database to a 10g 64 bit database. My 9i
box has 4 gig of ram and the usual 23bit limitations. My SGA and such on
the 9i box probably hovers around 1.2gig.
I have 24 gig of ram on the new box. From a data aspect, that will darn
near load my entire database to memory.
So, in setting SGA_TARGET, how much is too much? Before I was told the
box specs, I was thinking 3 gig. But, with 24 gig available, and I'm
the ONLY application on the box....how much is to much?
What are the benefits and cons to setting this value at say, 12gig, with
a SGA_MAX value of 15G.
