To override these settings for the current server session, specify the server

database and reset the defaults. The default sizes are 8MB for the main cache
and 4MB for the temporary cache, which are too low for any active database
use.
Your license sets the absolute number of concurrent users. However, you must
also set the
switch. This required switch lets you limit the number of
-gm
concurrent user connections on a particular server.
The
switch sets the number of execution threads that will be used for the
-gn
Catalog Store and connectivity while running with multiple users. It applies to
all operating systems and servers.
On Windows NT you need to specify this parameter in the
To calculate its value use the following formula:
gn_value = gm_value - (( 2 * num_CPUs ) + 10)
Specify a minimum of 25.
On UNIX platforms, the

There may be times when you want to tune performance for a particular
operation by limiting the number of user connections to fewer than your license
allows. Alternatively, you may want to use the

The
switch lets you specify the number of concurrent queries on a

particular server. This is not the same as the number of connections, which is
controlled by your license. By specifying the

The
switch creates a pool of "wired" memory on certain UNIX

platforms only. This memory is locked down so that it cannot be paged. Wired
memory can improve performance on Tru64, HP and Sun platforms. Specify
this switch as the number of megabytes of wired memory.
Warning!
Use this switch only if you have enough memory to dedicate some
of it for this purpose. Otherwise, you can cause serious performance
degradation.
