    For example, SQL OLTP with 4 processors, I create five files, 4 with the same
    size without autogrow and the last one with the same size, but with autogrow
    true, because we need to garantee space for any necessary task, but often we
    don't need and we manager well this.

    I know that, for OLTP, the rule of thumb for LOGS is around 25% of

    What is the rule of thumb for TEMP size?  I know that its a good idea
    (for TEMP) to have .25 to 1 data files per CPU, but how big should
    TEMP be in total?  Whats the rule of thumb there?  I would assume its
    some multiple of the total size of all databases in the instance?

    REGARDING TEMP DB SIZE:

    -For a small db server that does about 10-20 GB of logging per day, I
    would recommend having a size that does not go through AUTO_GROW. i.e
    ensure that the size of tempdb is big enough that it will hold the
    whole days work.

    - for larger dbs, you need to come up with a cycle time that is
    sufficient for your applications. i.e a 30 minute to 3 hour growth
    between tempdb's log file ie zero'ed.


Working...
