Re: index in data tablespace ???

Just to create some controversy, the separation of data and indexes I believe now to be a mistake. More correctly, you want to separate different *types* of IO. In the ol' days, this meant data and indices because the whole world consisted of index scan, table access by rowid, table full scan - now its hash join, merge join, fast scan, fast full scan, max/min scan blah blah blah...so the old argument is a lot more complex nowadays.

Cheers
Connor
