Advantages of virtual processors

A virtual processor provides a number of advantages.

Compared to a database server process that services a single client application, the dynamic, multithreaded nature of a database server virtual processor provides the following advantages:

Virtual processors can share processing.
Virtual processors save memory and resources.
Virtual processors can perform parallel processing.
You can start additional virtual processors and terminate active CPU virtual processors while the database server is running.
You can bind virtual processors to CPUs.

The following topics describe these advantages.
