Hi Gurus,

whenever I try to create a table with INITIAL = 16K, Oracle allocates extents with 20K. My blocksize is 2K, I got this behaviour on ORACLE 7.1.3 and 7.3.2.

As far as I see, Oracle always allocates multiples of 5 Blocks, but I haven't found anything in Oracle's documentation or white papers.

Any suggestions?

TIA Axel Schlueter
