关于《深入浅出Oracle》中granule的补充

在《深入浅出Oracle》一书的P110页，关于Oracle的Granule我有这样一段描述:

自9i开始，Oracle引入新的初始化参数db_cache_size;该参数定义主Block Size(db_block_size定义的块大小)的default缓冲池的大小；
Db_cache_size最小值为一个粒度（granule）。
粒度（granule）：粒度是连续虚拟内存分配的单位，粒度是9i新引入的参数，其大小取决于SGA_MAX_SIZE参数所定义的SGA总的大小
当SGA<128M时，粒度值为4M；
否则粒度值为16M
粒度大小受内部隐含参数_ksmg_granule_size的控制

有朋友在Windows2003上测试得出了不同的结论:

新值 6: AND x.ksppinm LIKE '%_ksmg_granule_size%'

其实这个granule_size在不同平台、不同版本中，Oracle的设置的缺省值都可能不同，书中提到的是一种通常设置，具体的我们知道了Oracle的内存管理方式就好。

Oracle9i的官方文档如下描述:

Granule size is determined by total SGA size. On most platforms, the size of a granule is 4 MB if the total SGA size is less than 128 MB, and it is 16 MB for larger SGAs. There may be some platform dependency, for example, on 32-bit Windows NT, the granule size is 8 MB for SGAs larger than 128 MB.

Oracle10gR2文档如下描述:

Granule size is determined by total SGA size. On most platforms, the size of a granule is 4 MB if the total SGA size is less than 1 GB, and granule size is 16MB for larger
SGAs. Some platform dependencies arise. For example, on 32-bit Windows, the
granule size is 8 M for SGAs larger than 1 GB.

列举如上，供参考。
