You might experiment with;


alter session set workarea_size_policy = manual;

Is there any way to give say 75% of pga_aggregate_target
to a single session? The reason I am asking this is -
sometimes we need to build an index as soon as possible
and the index creating is the only thing running and
other applications are stopped waiting for the index.

Thanks,

Roger

Jeffrey,

If you are simply looking at a conversion from 8i to 9iR2, and you're not
going to be implementing a bunch of new 9i features (that could affect PGA
usage), then it's probably reasonably straightforward.  You can look at
'session pga memory' and 'session pga memory max' statistics in V$SESSTAT to
get an idea of current PGA memory consumption in 8i.  The 'max' statistic
is probably more interesting in terms of total aggregate memory consumption.
Also, consider that any single serial session will never get more than 5% of
pga_aggregate_target.  For parallel operations, total is limited to 30%.
So, if you have lots of sessions, each with modest requirements, that will
not be a factor.  If, on the other hand, your database supports just a few
connections, and each has significant PGA memory requirements, then you may
need to consider that limitation.  

Hope that helps,

-Mark

Starting an upgrade project for 8i to 9i R2.  How can I come up with a reasonable starting value for the pga_aggregate_target parameter?
