Error loading xml file with sqlldr

Question

Hi there,
I am having trouble loading an xml file via sqlldr into oracle.
The version i am running is Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production and the file size is 464 MB.
It ran for about 10 hours trying to load the file and then threw up the error:
ORA-22813: operand value exceeds system limits.
I have loaded a file of 170MB using the same process succesfully.
Any Ideas?
Cheers,
Dan.

Looked a bit into the issue (ORA-22813) and although it can be caused by a lot of issues varrying database versions, you could have a go at sizing up your PGA database parameter. See Oracle support Doc ID 837220.1 for more info.
The following might help
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE show_pga_memory (context_in IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL)
SELECT privileges required on:
  SYS.v_$session
  SYS.v_$sesstat
  SYS.v_$statname
Here are the statements you should run:
GRANT SELECT ON SYS.v_$session  TO <schema>;
GRANT SELECT ON SYS.v_$sesstat  TO <schema>;
GRANT SELECT ON SYS.v_$statname TO <schema>;
IS
  l_memory NUMBER;
BEGIN
  SELECT st.VALUE
    INTO l_memory
    FROM SYS.v_$session se, SYS.v_$sesstat st, SYS.v_$statname nm
  WHERE se.audsid = USERENV ('SESSIONID')
    AND st.statistic# = nm.statistic#
    AND se.SID = st.SID
    AND nm.NAME = 'session pga memory';
  DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (CASE WHEN context_in IS NULL
                          THEN NULL
                          ELSE context_in || ' - '
                        END
                        || 'PGA memory used in session = ' || TO_CHAR (l_memory));
END show_pga_memory;
