Ha!

Actually, this huge sga didn't help things any.  I needed to prove it to
the person coordinating the test so I started up the database with a 20
GB buffer cache and a 7GB large pool.  The smaller test I did, with a 8
GB buffer cache, nearly removed my buffer busy waits during the data
load phase.  Basically I needed to prove that we can run on the 64-bit
architecture and that our load times would improve significantly.  They
did - from 2 hours to 1 hour 15 minutes.  I can shave even more off of
it if they let me modify the workflow.

They aren't going to buy this host anyway.  It's a Unisys E7000 with a
price tag of $250K for 8 Itanium 2 cpu's, running Windows Datacenter.
AAAAK!  See, I'm so easy to please.  Give me spendy hardware and I'm
kind of happy...

Have a great day, everyone
Lisa
