     I think if Oracle ever drops rule-based optimization as they keep 
     insisting they intend to do, the object stats have to be internally 
     done and not dependent on manual processes that customers may or may 
     not perform.

Slightly off-topic here, but with all this talk of locking vs. no locking for analyzing tables etc., I wouldn't be surprised to see *all* of the "manual" table analysis disappearing in a not-too-distant version of Oracle. I don't have any inside information here, apart from the fact that I know a couple of people who have gone to work in the Optimizer Group at Oracle and their previous experience was with a database that keeps all of the table stats up to date (including histogram-type stuff) on the fly with little or no performance impact. So, remember where you heard it first!      

(just my $0.01 [sic])

analyze for statistics never did an exclusive lock, it was validate structure that locked it.      

index rebuild no longer locks the index....
