Overview of memory use
Optimizing for large numbers of users
IQ command line option changes:
-gm
-iqgovern

Use the following guideline to determine
record size * BLOCK FACTOR = memory required
You need extra memory for this option, in addition to the memory for the
buffers. If you have a lot of memory available, or if no other users are active
concurrently, increasing the value of
performance.
Adaptive Server IQ, running on Tru64-UNIX, Solaris/32, and Solaris/64,
handles up to 500 user connections. In order to support this greater number of
users you must adjust both operating system parameters and
parameters.

-gm
#_ ACTIVE_ queries_to_support
-iqgovern
#_Catalog_Store_front_end_threads
-gn
-c
This is the total number of connections the server will support. Statistically,
some of these are expected to be connected and idle while others are connected
and actively using the database.
Although 500 users can be connected to IQ, for best throughput it is
recommended that far fewer users are allowed to query at once in order to allow
each of them sufficient resources to be productive. The
