Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Memory for 8i on Linux
We once had a database instance go corrupt by running two instances on a
system with only 64 Mb. Took hours to recover, as the only option was
restore a complete spare copy.
IMO 128 M is 128 M (and usually Oracle starts running smoothly in 256 M) and
memory is cheap enough nowadays,
and you already saved $$ on the operating system.
