Below is the output from a "ps -ef |grep PST" command on our 5.2 server. You can see that there are 9 of these XactPST.p processes running. There are hundreds of other types of processes running on this p670. Every morning when our system comes up there is a script that starts these 9 processes. As loan applications come into our system they use these 9 processes to contact our credit bureaus (TRW etc).
As the number of loan applications is growing we need to double or tripple the number of these processes. Is there a good way to know how these additional process will impact our system? For example will we need to purchase more memory/RAM if we go from 9 processes to 27? I guess I need a simple way to see how much memory and cpu each of these processes use.
