I repeat: why are you not looking to Oracle for support?

Sorry, misread that.

We are running this in VMWare. They will not support this. This will
be moving to OVM ( or hardware ) in the near future. I also just
restored some logs and this had been going on for some time before the
switch to Oracle support.

And verily, didst fied...@gmail.com <fied...@gmail.com> hastily babble thusly:

You may have installed more memory, but are you certain the system is seeing
it all? You need either a 64bit kernel or PAE enabled kernel to see more
than a total of 4gigs of addressable space, much of the top half gig of that
taken up by PCI.

What does free tell you?
What about ps or top? (which should tell you which apps are taking all your
RAM)
