RE: Fragmentation ?

That's one thing good about the databases here. Tablespace fragmentation is rarely a problem. Most of the database here are a Database Roach Motel: "Data checks in. It doesn't check out." Somehow, the data purge part of the application -- that they intended to put in "one of these days" -- never got written.

(For non-USA dwellers, Roach Motel is a trap for roaches. It has a sticky
floor, and the sales motto is "Roaches check in. They don't check out.")
