  Installing Oracle 9i on Mac OS X, Part 3

I notice the sample init.ora size contains the following:


java_pool_size =150000000
# small system - java_pool_size=25000000
# medium system - java_pool_size=50000000
# large system - java_pool_size=100000000


50% larger than the suggested "large system" size seems an odd choice for a test setup, particularly when Java is not even available in this release of the database. After some research I set mine as:


java_pool_size = 1


This gets rounded up to the system "granule" size, in my case 4M, and I save myself a whole stack of memory.


Also while I'm at it, "prod1" seems an odd choice of database name. Surely it will be a dev/test/scratch database rather than production, and I don't see what "1" buys you. I made mine "dev". But then I'm a nitpicker...
