With decent tuning you should be able to find a reasonable compromise between making lots of memory available for big jobs without lumbering little jobs with a huge footprint. Even on AIX now there are some extended shared memory facilities which allow you to have more segments instead of just making them all huge! I can't remember the exact details but EXTSHM rings a bell. Cheers, Ken -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
