Hi all, I inherited 8.1.7.4 (was upgraded from 8.1.6.3) on Win2000 Adv. Server(was upgraded from NT). Physical RAM is 4Gb db_block_size = 4096 sort_area_size = 6291456 sort_area_retained_size = 1048576 shared_pool_size = 419430400 Getting ORA-04030: out of process memory when trying to allocate 709132 bytes (callheap,kllcqas:kllsltba). How/where (besides windows task manager) can I lookup how much memory is being used at the time this error occurs?
