I understand it is provided in Solaris. Question is: how automatic is it then?
As in: all Oracle instances grab 4M pagesize for SGA? Or does the Oracle executable have to be pre-configured with the wanted size using ppgsz(1)?
Is 4M the default size? And is there an option to say some instances use larger page sizes, some don't?
