The 8.1.6 Oracle for linux (intel) I have used is a 32 bit app so a single instance couldn't use more than a 2G SGA anyway -- but I guess you could run multiple instances on a 4+G box. 2.4 stress? no personal experience -- I ran 2.4 pre9 for a long time without trouble -- but not on a database box. eric Chuck Carson wrote:

Can you get larger than 4G memory support prior to the 2.4 kernel? I just built the 2.4 kernel and it seems to be working smoothly, but I need to upgrade a core Oracle database to this kernel and am a little uneasy with the kernel being so new. Has anyone done any stress testing against the 2.4 kernel out there yet?

Thanks greatly, CC
