Listers,

I am attempting to tune a 7.3.4 OLTP database and I have a couple of questions.

1. The db_file_multiblock_count is 64 which seems way too high to me. What are the consequences, if any, of setting this parameter too high?
2. I want to increase the SGA to be 20% of the available memory (currently about 10%). Once I've made the change how can I tell if the Unix machine is paging memory without a fancy GUI tool?

Many thanks in advance,
Liam
