FORMS_MMAP

Default: TRUE

Valid values: FALSE, TRUE (default)

FORMS_MMAP configures Forms services to use memory mapped file I/O
when running Forms applications. This reduces the amount of memory
required on a system when more than one user is running the same Form.
By default FORMS_MMAP is set on.

Switching Memory mapping to off (FALSE) may be desirable in a
development environment as memory mapped file i/o has the side effect
of locking the forms in use preventing a developers from replacing
them with a new version. However, be aware that doing so may increase
memory usage and reduce performance. For production systems,
FORMS_MMAP should be unset or set to a value of TRUE


error = FRM-30087
