Why is Oracle process using 25 MB of RAM when idle?

Hi,

we are running 9.2 on HP-UX here.

We have pg_aggregate_target configured, but I realized (in my opinion) very high memory consumption of Oracle Unix processes.

  1. How come that one Oracle Connection (i.e. dedicated Unix process on HP) is using up at least 22 MB of RAM? It is using 22 MB if the user is just connected, not doing anything.

Any way I can modify this?

b) If the user is querying data and the like, the memory consumption goes up to 60 MB. How come?

Thanks!

Regards,
Helmut
