It comes out of the total memory of the server - separate from the shared pool - it is allocated per session - if running parallel processes in a DSS environ. can quickly consume memory avail. be wary wary careful.

Yes. Note that when you use MTS, sort area is taken from the SGA, specifically, from the LARGE_POOL if defined, or from SHARED_POOL, if not. With a dedicated server, sort area is a part of the process address space.
