Thank you Suzy,

In your MTS configuration, how many mts_servers and dispatchers are you using?

If you're using MTS, processes can be set to a low value. The value should account for any Oracle background processes (pmon, smon, etc), plus any dedicated (non-MTS) connections you expect. With MTS I generally set the value between 25-50.
