Client Side Memory Pain

• What the docs say

  • Nothing

• Measured

  • 4.5M for 1st connection (PB CONNECT USING)
  • 230K per connection after that
  • 170K per connection for SA 5.5.04

• Comments

  • No one cares about remote client memory
  • Multiple connections from one client are rare
  • Memory usage is hard to measure and categorize
  • Nevertheless, it's hard to explain

Each connection uses a minimum of 230K on the client side. This isn't too bad either.
