> How do I know how much additional memory each buffer I add will take?
Normally, you have a parameter DB_BLOCK_SIZE in INIT.ORA or INITxxxx.ORA (instance initialization file). You CANNOT change this paramater if your database has been created !
The default size is OS dependant but is often 4096 (bytes). Is you add 1 buffer, you use DB_BLOCK_SIZE bytes of memory.
Best regards.
