Hello Aldi,

If you have analyzed the schema, then you can get what you need from the statistics.
Have a look at the sparse_tables.sql and sparse_indexes.sql scripts on my web site
for an example of how it can be done.

Regards,

To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: Free space below HWM

Hi list,

Because of delete operations, some tables in my database has a lot of free space below High Water Mark. For example for a table, HWM is 400 MB but the number of record is just about 2000. I try Select count(*), it takes time too long.
How to know how much is unused space below high water mark ? (for a table and index as well, because I want to know which index that has been candidate for rebuild).

Thank you.

Aldi
