10g引入ASMM后SGA_TARGET取代shared_pool_size,db_cache_size等参数,成为DBA关注的主要SGA内存管理参数;有不少情况下SGA_TARGET参数会设置为一个小于SGA_MAX_SIZE的值(这样做在多实例情况下更具灵活性)。但不少人会问,这样岂不是要浪费一部分物理内存吗?Oracle会为实例分配SGA_MAX_SIZE大小的内存的,SGA_TARGET要设得和SGA_MAX_SIZE一样大才合理啊! 让我们来看看实际的情况:
官方对pre_page_sga参数的定义是"PRE_PAGE_SGA determines whether Oracle reads the entire SGA into memory at instance startup. Operating system page table entries are then prebuilt for each page of the SGA. This setting can increase the amount of time necessary for instance startup, but it is likely to decrease the amount of time necessary for Oracle to reach its full performance capacity after startup." 它决定Oracle是否在启动阶段将整个SGA读入内存,实际上在启动阶段SGA的内容是十分稀疏的,当pre_page_sga为TRUE时Oracle所要做的是向OS所要SGA_MAX_SIZE大小的实际物理页。 我们来看一下这个参数的实际效果:

10g中Oracle已经强烈不建议使用pre_page_sga参数了,在ASMM下它带来的问题可不小!
