I'm guessing that 2GB is fairly minimal for running
a production DBMS.  My recollection is that
Datatel recommends 60-80MB per user, but I can't
seem to locate that info on their web site.  There
would need to be some base amount of memory
just to get the OS and Unidata running (1GB?)...then some
memory for each user.  We are running about 70 
users on a system with 8GB and don't have the 
problems that have been mentioned.

If DOWNLOAD seems to be affected most frequently,
you could reduce the memory requirements by editing
I_DOWNLOAD_MAX_COMMON and reducing
DLMAX.DICT.RECS and DLMAX.LITERAL.VALUES
to something smaller than their default of 300.  You
will need to recompile using the installation paragraph
if you change any of these maximums.

Hi Kathy,

OOPS...  I normally use the signature below that includes that 
information.  We usually have ~35 users on our system.  We're now at 2
GB 
of RAM.  We also worked with the Datatel a bit regarding our udtconfig

settings.  I understand that the DMI and related java settings can have
a 
part in this.
