Hi,

  I'm going to perform defragmentation process on my production database. There 24 tables that will be exported and imported back. These tables are very large from 3 million records to 20 million records.

I would appreciate if someone who has done this process before can tell me who long does it take to perform this imp/exp process for table with 20 million records, 10 million records and 3 million records.

  Also, there are two way to do this ;
1. export table, drop table, import table back or 2. dump records into flat file, re-create table and use sqlloader to put in data.

  Which one is the best way to do it.

  (Oracle 7.3.4, Sun Solaris, Enterprise 10K machine)

Thanks in advance.
