Subject: Finding the actual size of a table Author: Steven Monaghan <Steve.Monaghan_at_wcom.com> Date: 5/30/00 11:52 AM

Which data dictionary view can I use to determine the actual size of a table, not just the extents allocated to it?

I will be moving a database to a new machine in a few weeks, and I want to start planning out the initial extent sizes for my tables. I don't want to just use exp/imp with compress=Y because I want to manually size some of my smaller reference tables with a large enough initial extent so they don't need to grow to reduce potential fragmentation.

I also have TOAD but couldn't find the answer there either.

TIA,
