i changed our corporate default to 1G because asm upgrade 11.2.0.2 -> 11.2.0.3 failed with ora-4031, something you don't want to see during an upgrade.

there's a metalink document

Oracle Exadata Database Machine Grid Infrastructure Upgrade to 11.2.0.2 fails with ASM ORA-4031 [ID 1279525.1]

about the issue we had.
