20-30 per appserver. 4 appservers.

No. At least they're not supposed to be.

The transactional data isn't real significant, however there is a huge amount of selects that the OO structures (poorly designed, I might add) query, and the reports use a funky system of "temporary tables" that are never committed. So, the SGA and PGA get pretty worked; there's not a great deal of data involved, however, so it's usually a matter of getting enough CPU's on the db, and (to a lesser extent) enough RAM.

Thanks...
