hi,
i've a oracle 9i db and after run dbms_stats i find a table size with this command:

select bytes,initial_extent,next_extent,extents from dba_segments where segment_name='TRANSIT' and OWNER='SACT';

the ouput is this:

BYTES           INITIAL_EXTENT   NEXT_EXTENT    EXTENTS
----------            --------------
-----------               ----------
 756678656      67502080             377524224          7

so, there is something wrong :-?

if next_extent is about 377Mb and the extents allocated is 7, it should be more then 756Mb (BYTES). Like 67Mb + 377Mb *6 , (initial + 6 extents)
Instead, why i've gather this result?

how i estimate table size?

thanks a lot
