ORA-04030: out of process memory when trying to allocate 16328 bytes

808758Mar 4 2014 — edited Mar 6 2014

Hi,

I have issue that PGA for a session on 10.2.0.5 database on IBM 64 bits is unable to go beyond 2GB.  Where should I look to allow extend it beyond 2GB, I would thought with 64bit it should be able to grow beyond 2GB.?

ulimit for oracle

time(seconds)        unlimited
file(blocks)         unlimited
data(kbytes)         unlimited
stack(kbytes)        4194304
memory(kbytes)       unlimited
coredump(blocks)     2097151
nofiles(descriptors) 4096
threads(per process) unlimited
processes(per user)  unlimited
