Is there any bench mark available on the 32/64 bits for Oracle. I wonder whether it is worth going the 64bits.

Subject: 32-bit to 64-bit migration on Linux

I have a 9.2.0.5 32-bit database on RHEL3/Linux 86 that I need to migrate to a new RHEL4/Linus 86-64 node. There isn't a 9.2.0.5 version for Linux 86-64. The database is too large for export/import. We also want to upgrade to 9.2.0.8 since it contains patches Oracle support says we need to stop our database crashes. Eventually, we want to be on 10gR2, but need time for extensive testing of the applications we write. I also want time to thoroughly test the migration from 9i to 10g to get my procedures down. The 9.2.0.5 is Standard Edition One.

I've opened an SR with Oracle, but it's been 3 days with no helpful suggestions yet. What bothers me the most is that I opened an SR before I started to verify my procedures and Oracle support said they would work. Nothing but errors for 3 days.

Has anyone done this or have any suggestions?

Sandy
