There are basically three other items you need:

  1. block size
  2. pctfree
  3. maxtrans

After you have these, then it's a matter of:

rows_per_block = block_size - ((block_size * pctfree) + (8 * maxtrans))/avg_row_length (sorry about the wrap)

After that:

table_size = ((#_of_rows_per_unit_time/rows_per_block) * block_size) +fudge_factor

In my case "fudge_factor" really comes from the area of the anatomy firmly in contact with chair cushion.

Hi All,

I've done an analyze on our test environment of all tables and want to size my tables for production properly.
(Our developers do not provide the sizing specs.) My question is :
I have the average row length
I have the estimated nummer of records per year I have the nummer of blocks for a certain record set.

What more block/row overhead should I be adding to calculate the tablesize

TIA Jack
