I haven't read this entire thread yet so please excuse me if I'm
repeating something that was already said.
I've noticed (haven't precisely measured/tested yet) that given a
machine running windows that has 2 GB of memory and an Oracle
database (9.2.0.5 in my case) with an SGA of 250 MB and you increase
your db_cache_size by 200 MB, you get 150 to 200 MBs of additional
pagefile use and real physical memory use only increases slightly, 50
MB or less. Now maybe, just maybe, Windows is dynamically reducing
it's physical memory use to accomodate Oracle's need for more, but I
seriously doubt that.
I'm not a Microsoft basher, actually quite the opposite, and I'm sure
there are a lot of folks out there happy with their Oracle database
on a Windows server, but due to memory management alone, I lean
toward linux/unix platforms for Oracle database use.
Besides, no matter how much I work on scripting with wmi on windows,
you can't beat the simple, yet broad functionality of shell scripting
on linux/unix for managing Oracle.
