X$
tables are NEVER stored in the disk. THey are just memory structures in the SGA and the contents are zeroed (are reset) when you shutdown the database. THey will not cause data dictionary fragmentation.

  Hi!
  I was wondering whether the Oracle data dictionary gets   fragmented and whether the dba needs to do something about it. E.g. if   granting tons of rights through grants directly to a user (and later revoke   them), does the data dictionary get fragmented (i.e. the x$ tables that hold   that information)? Would it be beneficial to reorganise the dd (or at least   rebuild the indexes)?
  Same thing with creating tons of temporary tables that are   created during a session and get dropped at the end of a session. Does this   fragment the dd?
  This is 8.1.7 on Sun Solaris.
  Thanks, Helmut Received on Tue Feb 12 2002 - 09:10:49 CST
