And 'preferred' rate : $42/hour? $42/minute? $42/42 seconds (That will solve some (42?) of my life's problems :)

Gaja is finally back (after 42 weeks of disappearance;) Welcome Back :)

I will now go back to packing my cube(in 42 boxes :) to move to a new small cube (42 SQ FT. And that's not a joke. New cubes are 7' X 6'). So Dgmt can import & tigthly pack more rows err.. folks from another rental office and save money. New space will follow uniform sized cubes policy.. sort of what's described in the Paper #117. Smallest cubes for us, little bigger for Managers. Directors can have their own databases... err... rooms !!

42 of these OT mails, and Jared will boot us (may be 42 of us??) to the OT list ;)

Ahh, but how can you be sure that "42" does not also *cause* all of life's problems? ;)

Does this also mean that the "preferred" number of disks, tablespaces, and extents should also be 42? ;>

My dear friend Mogens,

I am so glad we share the same kind of "bedtime reading" in our own parts of the world. I totally agree with you, every cache hit ratio and performance metric within Oracle needs to be 42, for us to be in a sublime and happy state...;-). After all "42" does solve all of life's problems!!

Cheers,

Gaja
