That sounds like nonsense. The minimum size of your heap is whatever you need to handle the expected load on your applications. The maximum is whatever you can get away with that doesn't induce swapping and still leaves adequate room for whatever file cache you need to support the local disk I/O you're doing (usually not much unless your DB server is on the same box). You have to measure your own environment to see what works best. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
