A single node 4 CPU SE should scale even better than 2 node x 2 CPU SE RAC so using SE RAC for scalability is luxury and company doing so has way too much money.
Hi Alex I'd say it depends on the app and the platform. There are systems - it would be purely posturing to say what proportion of them as I have no idea - that will require more than the 1.7gb process limit on a 32bit platform before they exhaust the CPU capacity of the opteron based machines that you use as an example. -- Niall Litchfield Oracle DBA http://www.orawin.info
