Hi,
It would definitely help to place big tables in different
tablespaces.
Some advantages
1) You can size the tablespaces & tables appropriately. In
terms of Initial extent, Next ,Pctincrease ,pctused,pctfree
,freelists. The big tables will get contiguous chunks .
2) In case you have to do a reorg for these tables , only the
concerned tablespaces are affected.
3) Fragmentation is reduced in other tablespaces (since you
have transferred big tables).
4) If you can seperate the big tables into different schemas ,
you can reduce your export times by taking backup of
seperate schemas (if your application allows this)

Subject: Table with Long datatypes?
There are lots of questions regarding tables with long
tables. When I read the Oracle Performance Tuning
manual, it says "All tables that contain LONG or LOB
datatypes, should be placed into a separate
tablespace". My question, what's the advantage? Also
in my application, among the 100 tables, 5 of them are
big tables(close to 2GB). Is it better to put them in
a separate table space?
Thanks in advance.
