Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: data files - How big?
IMHO, it depends on the database sizing requirements. I have a 1gb db and the datafiles range in size from 100mb to 2gb. On the other hand, I have a 800mb db and the datafiles range in size from 100mb to 10gb. The larger datafiles are used for our images tablespace (~500gb). 50 x 10gb datafiles is reasonable for a 500gb tablespace. I couldn't imagine 250 x 2gb datafiles. I like to keep my tablespaces at least 30% free. It helps me sleep at night :). As for software/hardware not supporting >2gb filesize, time to upgrade or replace.
