Tanel Poder's presentation "Memory Management and Latching Improvements in Oracle9i and 10g" mentions the parameter _use_ism_for_pga. It didn't register in my mind when I read it some time ago. I don't have access to Oracle on Solaris right now. Why does Oracle do this? It would be interesting to see the effect.
