Monitor the values in USED_UBLK and USED_UREC in V$TRANSACTION (i.e. number
of undo blocks and undo records used by the transaction); I believe
USED_UREC comes pretty darn close to tracking the number of extents. Close
enough, anyway...
You can get to V$TRANSACTION from V$SESSION by joining V$SESSION.TADDR to V$TRANSACTION.ADDR. Hope this helps...
