I came across this question on the IBM site
"A process has five program activities. The same data structure is used for all the data tabs throughout the process. If the amount of data in each container is always 1000 bytes, how much space is used in the database for container data for each instance (excluding any overhead)? "
THe answer is 12000 bytes. HOw is it calculated?
And what is the max size the container (Input/Ouput) can hold for each activity?

This gives us 10 containers, 1 Input and 1 Output per activity.

This is a little bit of a trick... You must remember that the Process itself has an Input and Output container giving us a total of 12 containers

1000 * 12 is 12000

I believe the current maximum is 32Meg. However, containers should be as small as possible for performance reasons.
