This chapter discusses the combined effect of operating system and database server configuration parameters on memory utilization. This chapter discusses the parameters that most directly affect memory utilization and explains how to set them. Where possible, this chapter also provides suggested settings or considerations that might apply to different workloads.
Consider the amount of physical memory that is available on your host when you allocate shared memory for the database server. In general, if you increase space for database server shared memory, you can enhance the performance of your database server. You must balance the amount of shared memory dedicated to the database server against the memory requirements for VPs and other processes.
