I am already awaiting their response on that. :) We were going to do
64-bit until we realized the standby had to be 64-bit as well so
everything is 32.

You'll see some of this on my other thread. They did not want me to
fiddle with PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET, which is 400MB, just with SGA_TARGET,
which currently equals SGA_MAX_SIZE. I need to figure out how to
effectively reduce it because my min size currently required is just
12MB below the target. I'm awaiting their response, but thought I would
ask the real experts also.
