Raj:

There won't be technically any differnt from 3 node to 64 node as in RAC a maximum of 3 parties involved in ANY resource management (Master-holder-requester) . Be it is 3 nodes or 64 nodes or 128 nodes.

If the application scales for 3 nodes, it will definitely scale for 64 nodes. I don't understand why people have a wrong opion with additional number of nodes. I have customer running 8 nodes without any performance penalties and not much gc waits also. The application is NOT partitioned btw.
