Niall,

The formula seems to be

1) If PROCESSES parameter is explicitly set: The MEMORY_TARGET should
be set to no less than:
  256M + (PROCESSES*132K)  -- (64bit)
or
 256M + (PROCESSES*120K)   -- (32bit)


2) If PROCESSES parameter is not set: The MEMORY_TARGET should be set
to no less than:
  256M + ((available_cpu_cores * 80 + 40) * 132K) --  (64bit)
or
  256M + ((available_cpu_cores * 80 + 40) * 120K) --  (32bit)

so if you have 1000 processes set then for 64 bit then your
memory_target becomes (256*1024)+(1000*132) K in size, which is about
384M, for ASM that is a bit of a jump from 256M..

I think it is plus (integer * multipled by 132k) not plus 132k.

oh well, we tried.
