oracle 9i on a laptop ~~ how do I prevent the ~1 second disk hit on my laptop! This is a MAJOR problem!

I've been working with Oracle 9i for about 8 months on windows XP (the same
problem occurs with WIN2000). However, I noticed that the latest release has
some software that "hits the disk" about every 1-2 seconds! Anyway, this is
a real problem on my laptop, because it can NEVER go into a low-battery-mode
since the disk sub-system is always active. Does anyone know how to shut
this 1/2 second disk hit (evdently a disk-write)? I've spent about 16 hours
trying to trace which processes which are hitting-the-disk! I've almost
identified it, but when I shut down those processes, I still get the
disk-hits! This is BAD NEWS for laptop users that have to work off battery.
Anyway, I sure with ORACLE would fix this BUG!

Thanks in advance, for your advise!

I think I'm doing something wrong. I'm able to connect to Oracle just fine, execute queries and all, but I'm having serious problems with the speed :( For example, the following PHP-script on my machine executes about 6 seconds: <? $db_conn = ocilogon("my_username", "my_password", "my_database"); $loop_count = 1000;

Hi: I am totally new in Sun Solaris. I am not sure someone would like to tell me how to rellocate Sun Solaris disk space where oracle installed? I installed Oracle 8i in Sun Solaris and set Oracle main table space called TABLES in unix disk space /dpp/live01. From the following, it's quite easy to see that the disk space of /dpp/live01 is 97%.Therefore how can i move some disk space of SWAP to /dpp/live01 without losing

Hello Everyone, I am trying to install Oracle 9 on my Windows XP Pro laptop so I can play around. I downloaded the 3 ZIP files specified on the Oracle site (92010NT_Disk1.zip) and unzipped them into their respective Disk1, Disk2, Disk3 folders. I then run the setup.exe in Disk1, the drive churns for 10-15 seconds, then nothing happens. No error messages, nothing. I've tried running the autorun, I get the Splash logo with the menu, I...

What is the *truth* when it comes to configuring Oracle files on an Enterprise Virtual Array like an HP EVA3000 or EVA5000 or an EMC Symmetrix frame.

The cache is supported by front-end and back-end (disk-side) processors and a range of algorithms that aim to...
