  1. If you select * from a table, shouldn't that load the whole table into the database buffer cache, provided it fits. I have a script that I found that shows me what's in the cache, but I cannot seem to make 100% of a tables block fit. I could not seem to find the answer in the concepts manual.
  2. What's does system put in the buffer cache. We notice that after starting the db, system will occupy a good chunk of the buffer cache, but that will start to decrease as various queries are run and the data begins to fill the cache.
