Hi Managers,

        My original question was:


>I think I saw this answered some while ago here, but I can´t find the
message now so here it goes again: what are the effects of changing the
Virtual Memory kernel parameter "new-wire-method" from its default 0 value
to 1?
>
>This change is to be made on an Alpha 2100 running Digital Unix 4.0B and
Oracle 7.3.

>Thanks in advance,

        I only received an answer from Bryan Lavalle at Digital. Thanks for your
        suggestions.
