I always enjoy reading your content, whether on your blog or whitepapers I have found on the net that you have written. It's always well thought out, and extremely informative. It's just that by definition, polyserve competes in the storage management space. I apologize if I offended you, as I noted, I always enjoy your commentary.

We are in the beginning process of building our first *RAC* on ASM storage (we just completed the install about a month ago). During heavy performance testing it got as high as 3GB, but we didn't receive any ORA-4031's (7.5GB max sga). We didn't have to resize our datafiles (the cause of bug #4237613, DOCID 390251.1), so maybe we escaped unscathed :)

Thanks,
