One of our guys used a very large bulk collect into with a forall update. It sucked up 
all the swap space on our solaris box and noone could connect to it. So we had to 
bounce the server. 

I was under the impression that pl/sql tables go into the buffer cache and cannot go 
large than its size? Oracle typically holds your hand with memory usage issues. Are 
there any parameter settings I can use that limit the size of pl/sql tables? 

Or are they just dynamic arrays that can grow as large as you want.

I know your supposed to use a 'limit' command on them. I didnt write it. I  just dont 
want it to happen again.
