Guang,
Thanks for the input.
That might be a good choice if the network was not reliable.( not
saying that ours is the best)
but the table sizes are around 3 - 4 Gig in size and have 10s of
millions of rows. Time to transfer the
data to the server temp table and then load from the temp table could
be very prohibitive.
I have checked the reference manual for 10g that I downloaded yesterday
and I am starting with
the parameters pga_aggregate_target while adjusting the sga_target to
match the memory
in the server.
I will keep you posted.

I have never tested it, but it may worth trying by "copy" the remote
table
to a local table first (I think there is a copy command in sqlplus),
then
insert them into your destination table.

Gints,
Thanks for the feedback, It gives me other avenues to venture down.
The load procedures are.
Log into server 1 and issue "insert into table1_at_databaselink select *
from table1;"
on the larger tables I would separate the inserts by the primary key
(saledate) and
load a month at a time then commit;
I will look into the WORKAREA_SIZE_POLICY parameter and it's impact
when I get a chance. Right now I'm tied up with new client pc
deployement.
It's great to have a multi- tasking job.

According to docs default value for 10g for parameter
WORKAREA_SIZE_POLICY is AUTO. As you havent it explicitly set to
MANUAL
in init file which means you are using automatic sizing of PGA defined
by pga_aggregate_target. As you have commented out
pga_aggregate_target
it may use its default value and once again from docs it is 10 MB or
20%
of the size of the SGA, whichever is greater. Probably 20% (~130M I
think) in your case is big enough.
But if you are using WORKAREA_SIZE_POLICY=AUTO then Oracle doesn't use sort_area_size and sort_area_retained_size.
And you haven't told anything about data loading process, so probably problem isn't in db parameters.
