As Jim has asked, please let us know which database you're using too.

Hi tads98,

Issue the command "top" and you can see there the Physical and the virtual memory.
e.g:
Code:
Memory: 217020K (175408K) real, 562684K (507512K) virtual, 1010356K free  Page# 1/11

The pysical memory in our example is "real" :
Total - 217020K
Free - 175408K

The virtual memory is "virtual" :
Total - 562684K
Free - 507512K

Regards,
Nir

Oracle also creates a slew of processes on the box where the user processes reside -
in any case also try glance.
