Is it for a transactionnal system or for a dss system ?

In an Oracle document I've read 2 years ago, the author said that a table become a candidate to partitionning at 2G.
I've partitionned smaller tables than that. Manipulating partitions with drop was way faster than deleting rows.

I'm not aware of a formula for partitionning.

On 8i, partitionning is free.
