Each Oracle process wasn 't using 450M, it is a shared memory thing, use
pmap to determine what memory you are actually using

Well,
We ended up swapping in production although looking at top sessions we
see that each oracle process consumes 450Mb of memory but only 1Gb of
RAM being used and certainly not all swap!!! =3D20
In fact when we were "swapping " we saw 4Gb of RAM still available on the
system. The sysadmin states that processes are swapped when idle!!! =
=3D20
What is the unix tool to see if we are swapping? =3D20
